These operators get paid bank. Much respect! Cranes have always fascinated me...
I've been doing this for 15yrs..Love my job...Great video.Thanks.
You still doing it?
How does he pass drug test being that high everyday
Sean B if it were me I wouldn't have any piss left to put in a cup for testing
I'm hella late. But damm this is funny😂😂😂
No
Dude!
Ngl that cabin looks pretty cosy
Damn my knees and ankles got weak watching this!
Well that was cool. Not sure I could do that job as I am challenged by heights. I love those sky cranes and find their engineering quite remarkable.
With all that technology and engineering it's always surprised me that the crane operator has to climb hundreds of feet up vertical ladders to get to the cab. Surely it must be possible to fit some sort of lift mechanism? It only has to carry one person after all.
Even though it isn't as high, the tower crane outside my window has a lift for the operator. When it didn't have a lift, I always saw the operator taking breaks at every third
They usually have bridges near the top
We get paid extra 30mins on each day. Call it climb time.
@@snejad596big money too !
That looks way scarier than any roller coaster!
I was with the labor union years ago and the dude running the frieght elevator was the funniest person I ever met in my life...
I'm surprised that cranes haven't been fully automated or remotely controlled from the ground yet as the majority of hands-on work has been.
I was on the 16th floor watching a building being constructed next to us for several months. On windy days you could you really how much that thing swayed especially when carrying a load. No way I could do that. I could not even do that if there was no wind.
Oooommmmmggggg‼️‼️. There really needs to be a “Fans” page just for the crane operators😳😳. They are so darn brave…along with the rest of the workers who work on high rises‼️‼️
Much respect for people Who do this work. On the Edge
I run an SK575-32 and put out tower crane education videos as well, great stuff!
AWESOME!!!
Incredible ! I would love to try that
You would have to have great depth perception to do this job.
u learn it, ur eye muscles adapt
Andresmoomoo your an idiot
You have a flagger at the bottom, hes literally your eyes down there and even gets you into and around spots you cant see
Lmfao
Nice video.
Nope nope nope nope nope nope nope nope nope noway ever!!
So could you do a video of one going up or how they take them down or maybe how long does it take to put one up that looks like a job of his own how sturdy is it
Depends how you follow directions. Google crane falls over.
So, not infallible.
Cool!!!!
Thats called the Crane of Nope!
Thats so amazeing
Tower Crain is fun, special wen you go grease the cable on the end of the Crain,I love
My respect to the operator. They don’t have enough $$$ for me to do that !!!
In Poland we get 8-10 $ per hour 😂
That's one more for my list of jobs Ill never do.
Ordering Pizza for lunch Today! Lol
Drone delivery
@@davestaco man basket working on U of A skyboxes occasionally I would deliver the tower crane operator a hoagie for lunch. He would just pull me up and trolley me back to the cab.
@@scottrobbins6216hell yah brother
nice FLAT horizon
Look I am not climbing up and down when I need to take a piss just watch out below
Xxtotal_sarcasmxX 11605 😂😂😂
That's what I do off the tower ...
Probably takes a shit in a bucket lmao
In all seriousness, they use big plastic bottles. Hopefully they seal them properly.
Never mix up your piss bottle with your mountain dew bottle. :)
Anxiety threw the roof, props bro
Cool job
Amazing
I hope they pay Chris well! I'll stay on the ground and watch you! :)
Indji tolli they do 20 cents a mile
Indji tolli I'm sure he's doing 6 figures.
Yea I’m sure he gets paid a lot more then what you do
Indji tolli lol, imagine if it was windy while your up there
120000
My heart was racing just watching this clip lol
I love Milwaukee!!
How do they move it or dissamble the crane when they are done with the work?
Man... it takes lead balls to do this job
Man that thing is FUCKING big. AWESOME why ain't no one told me about this by now
I'm still convinced these grow up from the ground..never seen one being put up or taking down they just seem to sprout up over night 🤔
Don't mean to necro this comment, but it made me laugh because I completely agree. They really do sprout up like weeds. Looking at the immensity and complexity of it, I really do have no idea how they get it from place to place and do it so very quickly.
You could go on a one-man strike and bring the whole company to a screeching halt. Holy hell no way.
Made my stomach knot up YIKES!!
Usa is a smart country that's makes thier own construction machinary.
They make them like mini offices. Lol so cool
Thats a job I would never even consider. Thats crazy.
Respect
Special breed thanks guys and gals
Not a bad job at all. Looks sweet.
I would love this job. I've got no problem with heights.
Probably pays big money
I salute people like you, for doing the job im terrified of doing.
@@sjh9173 Yeah, because of the nasty falls.
Hell yeah brother
I got dizzy just watching this 😮
What All Crane location did this crane come out of?
This sherry gardens missisusgua? I did the steel deck on that
You could just chill listening to podcasts in there all day
Unfortunately no. U have to be in constant communication with people on the ground for obvious work and safety reasons. Still a cool place to spend the day tho
@@jared123123 Ye makes complete sense actually
I could never.
I want to go on this as a carnival ride.
These guys dont get enough thanks if they didnt risk there lives to build i sure wouldnt du it i have questions how du they erector crane how du tgey take it down has one eva fell whats too much weight im downtown Chicago where alot of building is happening itsreally amazing.
wow, who needs to go to a gym? That is a work out climbing..bravo great job you crane operators do
Tower Crain is fun
Just watching a video to see it show milwaukee and I can see my house from there...
That’s a crazy ass job For me personally hell no if you fall in that I can’t imagine what would go thru someone’s head. SCARY AS HELL
No worries, they're probably stoned af. Like I'd have to be. Lol
I’d be so mad if I ever had to go poop while up there.
Home depot bucket, a seat and pine pellets. Good to go.
خسته نباشی دلاور
NO WAY!
How does it get up there is my question
Your question was answered in the video that I’m sure you watched
Did you not watch the video wow 🤦🏻♂️
KING MARCOSYT ... it was never said in the video but they build them from scratch up I am a current construction worker for the past seven years and I’ve seen a few go up
I've always wondered if u need that to build things as high as it, how does it get up? Lol
I’m amazed you have to climb a ladder. Should have some sort of tight steep stairs built in
Actually looks kinda fun
I was never scared of heights but as i hot older im terrified and speed. Why is that?
How do they use the bathroom during their shifts?
While I do find these giant cranes as some impressive pieces of engineering, I would not enjoy having to climb all the way down and back up to use the restroom.
Who said anything about climbing down to use the restroom? Use the bucket
In my state I worked for honey bucket and most cranes had their own toilet
Just pee from the highest point people will think it's raining 😂
What do you do to the crane when a storm hits with high winds
NOOBEULOUS RBLX keep Spider Man on speed dial...🕷🕸
Call in sick
Usually there is wind limits etc once they reach a threshold have to stop working.
An office with a view.
My hands get sweaty just watching this video
Halo...i am Herman Sudianto from Indonesia
Wow I would like to try that in my carrier, my God bless the work of my 👏 it to👏🔝👍🙏🙏☑️
The one thing that I have always wondered about. How do they go to the bathroom way up there?
I wondered that myself.
They crack the door and just let it fly. Takes a good few seconds before the people on the ground start feeling the rain and questionable hail .
But for real likely have urinal style device somewhere up there for general use. Otherwise get the milk jugs ready for storage lol
Jar? Females, a bit more complicated, but do able. I don't know about poop. Maybe a bucket and a seat...like camping.
what do you do if you have to go?
piss bottle
Adult diaper. ;-)
Shit off the side. Piss in a bottle
You bring a honey bucket.
Shit off the side. Piss of the side. Always aim.
Between $50,000 and $60,000 a year??
These guys should be bringing in at the very least a $100k
Daaamn! i would like work like him! what do i need!? i got balls to go to the top what else i need?
El Pariente you’ll need to get your tower crane certification. Almost anywhere in the United States uses nccco except for New York I think. I’m not 100% sure. I work with mobile cranes, but I can get the information from my uncle who is a licensed nccco instructor.
That is one brave camera man
That's a big NOPE NOPE NOPE from this guy. I was within moments of a panic attack just watching this on a tiny smart phone screen.
Badass
Do you need a crane to set up a crane?
R8ERN8TION52 at first yes but these cranes jump them selves once you put the cab on
Unlike no other?
Can't say I've ever heard that expression
Beat me to it
I'm glad this comment was made. And this is a media organization?
Dream job
I been on a 300 foot crane taking down some temp lights to light up the hotel when they poured concrete views were awesome of the Mississippi river still got the pics today the biggest problem was dealing with the wasp lol
dealing with wasps 300 feet in the air? I'd be dead.
PeacefulJoint lol yeah it wasn't fun but we ran out of wasp spray but next time we went up we got double the wasp spray lol I remember the first day we got half way up and saw a storm coming in barely man it down then it started hailing take about lucky lol
all kidding aside, somebody is playing the hell out of that guitar.
No dam way 🤨
Jeff Ray that square body is sexy. My friend has a 87 in the exact color
Y’all saw that now but shit that pay🤭
Best view of what? A city?
Klimaanlage Aufzug Microwelle ,mScheibenwischer gab's bei mir noch nicht ;-)
that's go to be the ultimate job.
Awesome vantage point an mega views......
BUT FUCK THAT!!! lol
I'm afraid of heights, but I know the best therapy for phobias is shock therapy so I'll try and learn to become a tower crane operator 😂😂😂
That was just a hellacious grip that I had on my phone.
It would be cool to just chill inside the box thing
Wow!! better him then me haha

@@WholeOttaRed ya herd

Pog
You must love Mountain Dew! Can and bottle!
I'd get up there and end up forgetting my phone charger..
Been high all my life and still afraid of height's lol
I don't even care for a 3rd floor roof.
