Watch Out for Falling Cranes

I heard a story on the news earlier this evening about a crane falling on an apartment complex in New York, killing and injuring several people who were trapped in the rubble. This is such a random catastrophe; it's just something you normally don't worry about. You could ask one thousand people about their biggest fears, and most likely, none would respond "falling cranes." I feel awful for all of the construction workers and innocent bystanders who were involved in this terrible accident. I can't really imagine what it would be like if something of that size fell on top of my residence. Worse than being killed on impact would be becoming trapped beneath feet of debris, unable to call out for help. There are still several people missing in the wreckage; I'm hoping that they are found soon. I'm gonna try and find some blogs with information on this event with some possible first hand recollections. This would be interesting to read.
