A terrifying video shows the moment a construction crane in downtown São Paulo, Brazil, nearly hit pedestrians and vehicles on the street.
The accident occurred at a You Inc. construction site on Tuesday morning (26). No one was injured, and the company is investigating the cause of the crane’s fall.
The video shows the structure collapsing onto the street just as several people, including children, were walking on the sidewalk. A parked car is seen braking moments before being hit.
“You Inc. reiterates its commitment to best practices in civil construction and to the safety of the community around its developments,” the company said in a statement.
