Got enough counterweight???

Noticed this on a crane accident investigation website - sorry if it has been posted previously.

I can't really imagine a situation where a lifting job wouldn't have enough counterweight available (via proper planning etc) so a dozer was lashed to the back?

Well it did stop it toppling right over right ... :lol: If that's what they wanted, then it went exactly according to plan.
