Well gent's,
I had a fantastic trip today, up the most powerful crane in the world.
http://www.3ds.com/fileadmin/PRODUCTS/CATIA/OFFERS/CATIA-ANALYSIS/PDF/Yantai-Raffles-Shipyard-Contact-Mag.pdf
Lifting capacity is 20 000 tons
I am not sure the height, but it's damn high !
Actual height 122 meters, a mere HALF the height of my bungy jump.
Any way, down to the images.
An elevator takes us up.
.
View is amazing, it is higher than the surrounding hills and mountains.
The lifting end

Now that's slightly larger than the 50 tonne Demag's I used to work on
Would love to take a trip up that. The higher and bigger, the better. _________________ Cheers,
