so some romantic bloke decided to sing a love song to his girlfriend from outside her bedroom window & ask her to marry him......

i have a couple of questions...

how on earth did she not hear him sneak a 30t crane wagon up her street??

with that crane outside in the road, how the hell couldn't he get the peugeot to move???

do dutch crane drivers actually have any training??

don't people in the netherlands have access to ladders?????

was he a fat ba$tard or something??

is this what you do over there instead of getting down on one knee??

Shame about the 205, what a weapon. What was his plan even if he hadn't flipped the crane? was he gonna grab the hook and swing thru the window?

this is the thing, there is no footage or pics of a man basket on the end of the hook, or a bit of string off his coat hanging loop, or belt.. and no pics of him or her either.

He must've been one big lad to make a mobi crane go over like that...

if he had only driven forward 2m the outriggers would have been able to go to full reach...

there is more to this story.
