  11. First, no one was hurt in this accident. This past monday I was to do a step off from a Movietech Phoenix crane but the crane "broke " while balancing for my weight. I was working the shot with the director and DP and a PA of close enough weight was strapped into the seat on the crane and the bucket was filled with lead. The crane was balanced to the PA's weight and he stayed on the crane in a position level to the ground for at least 5 minutes. Then failure. Above the main arm of the crane is the parallelogram post running from the nose platform through the centerpost to the weight bucket. This post (forgive me if this is not the true name of the post) keeps the platform level to the ground as the crane booms up and down. The post consists of several section each about 4 feet long. This allows the crane to be set up for different lenghts. It was a connection on this post that separated. When this connection was broken there was nothing to keep the platform level (or stable) and it instantly flopped down 90 degrees leaving the PA swinging upside down and rightfully distressed. The bucket was emptied, our PA returned to land, and tended to by the medic. Thankfully, the crane was high enough off the ground so he was not slammed into the cobblestone street. Yes, I refused to ride on the crane and no one questioned why. I have done two or three step offs from the Phoenix but I will no longer. There is no "visually positive" locking feature on the parallelogram bar. A knob on the end of one section enters the end of another section and is the clamped, an internal clamp / block catches on the edge of the knob securing the sections. However, one can not see if this block is engaged. What is even more disconcerting is that the crane was under load for a period of time before the separation occurred. I would think if the sections were not connected tightly there would be a failure during loading weights. Regardless, there is no way of telling that the sections of the parallelogram bar are locked. If there was a locking pin you could see holding the connection or a collar that joined two piece one could be sure of a true connection. I don't have a firm grasp of crane mechanics and have been able to do only a simple autopsy of this accident but what I do wish to impart is an awareness that this crane is unsafe to ride as it is now. Efforts are being made here in New York to inform, not just camera people, but all key grips that this crane is unsafe. It is my hope that this info will spread. The PA is fine. He was sent to the hospital and released later. Sandbags would have been a better choice as a stand in for me (they take direction better) but if bags were used they would have slid off the platform and the weight bucket would have crushed at least one grip.
