The process was awesome to watch - especially in the notoriously windy and wet Cape Town weather. Can you imagine standing on the edge of this crane like the two men in the photo were doing? Even though I could see that they were wearing harnesses - I'm not sure that it's something I would do in windy Cape Town ;).
As you can see, the orange crane is assembled using a portable crane. I tracked the portable crane's owner down by virtue of their name printed on the rig. Take a peek at the gallery on Target Crane's website - they have some truly remarkable vehicles.
