The CRAZIEST container rollover I've seen this year - How often do you see a container split in half? I do these alllll the time and it is so rare to see a container this mangled. The impact over the concrete barrier hit at just the right angle and speed to slice this open like a tuna can, spilling the contents all over the freeway and landing down below.

The load was some kind of appliances to build, like kitchen cabinets. The rain did not help but at least it wasn't pouring; only a light drizzle. Space was tight, so I used my 50ton rotator's (HULK) massive boom to upright it from the other freeway lanes, while Alex in our 75ton rotator (Big Flipper) backed up to the rear for a super controlled lift. Hector got the easy part, using unit 66 (50ton Vulcan) with the equalizing method to control the tractor.

The upright itself was pretty Pepe's textbook and easy. The cleanup.....not so much. I included a 900% sped up portion at the end to show how long that part took and how much labor was involved. Heavy stuff, but with team work we got it done and the roadways were clear again in no time.
