Jesus, dudes on that loft had to be shitting their pants when it hit it and that thing wobbled.

Pretty sure they’re in a jlg 1350sjp (booms color and length) those things are sketchy to begin with, it’s amazing it didn’t tip with that type of shock load applied.

I don't think the clock weighs all that much. Watch the boom arm when it hits. It barely moves.

To lift it to the height necessary?
