Big Ship Crashes into new Gantry cranes. DISASTER!

The container ship that entered Busan's new port was hit by a large crane.

The accident resulted in the destruction of several cranes, which would have hampered port operations for at least a few months.

Reporter Oh Tae-in on the sidewalk:

A containership that slips and approaches the pier.

Suddenly I turn my bow back towards the sea.

At that moment, the back of the ship hits a crane on land.

The crane, who could not overcome the impact, collapsed quickly.

A 150,000-ton ship approached the pier and struck a large crane.

[Accident witness: As the boat came in, there was a small boat, but it seemed to have been avoided. The stern tail hit the crane and collapsed.]

The accident was around 2:50 PM.

The large crane that moved the container from the ship to the ground was so shocking that it crashed down.

In addition, three other cranes in the vicinity were pushed out, and the knight on the crane was taken to the hospital.

[Kil Il-geun / Head of Public Relations Office, Changwon Coast Guard: The crane collapsed when a 150,000 ton container ship that entered the 8th seat in Busan collided with a crane on the ground. Guard ships and rescue boats are placed around the ship. .]

Due to the accident, the operation of the Busan New Port Pier 2 is expected to be disrupted for at least several months, and the damage is expected to reach 10 billion won.

Haekyung is investigating the exact circumstances of accidents against pilots and others on a container ship.
