If there's no evidence that it happened then it didn't happen, or as Bart Simpson said "I didn't do it. You didn't see me do it. You can't prove anything.".

Actually, it didn't appear to have any trucks on it, probably to save weight, and it landed on its side, but I"m sure that will buff right out. What I want to know is why all those folks were standing around so close to a very heavy lift in progress. They did have on their hard hats, though, so that probably would have saved them from a train to the noggin.

Your right of course but it sounded good .
I did note though that many of the workers had on their safety orange vests and were wearing their masks so they must have felt trippily safe standing around a heavy lift.
