I don't think anyone was hurt... I got this in an email, so I'm not sure if it's all... real. Or whatever. Now that I think about it, that last one looks incredibly unrealistic...

I want to laugh soooo bad, but I'd feel horrible if anyone was hurt. Actually, the only way I can see where people didn't get hurt is if no one was in any of the vehicles. I know that cranes can be run from outside boards, but how did the first car get in there?

I could help but start laughing when they pulled out that huge truck thing.
Look at that last pick, is the crane truck falling in?

That must suck....
But sadly a bit funny, but I may have to agree the last picture looks fake.

Why? Notice how far away the craine is from the dropoff to the lake? If you turn the crain rightside up from where it is in the last image, it's not in the same position as images #6-10. It would had to do a full flip over to get to the spot it was at to be able to fall off the edge. Therefore, that one must have been edited. Check out my edit :P

The first part is all real, but the second crane falling in is definetly fake. Snopes2.com has some info to prove it.

That's AWEFUL!!
Every year in Uganda, innumerable children simply. . . disappear. These children all stolen under the cover of darkness from their homes and impressed into the guerilla armies of the LRA [Lord's Resistance Army]. In the deserts of Uganda, they are forced to witness the mindless slaughter of other children until they themselves can do nothing but kill. Kill. These children, generally ranging from ages 5-12, are brainwashed into murdering in the name of the resistance and into stealing other children from their beds to suffer the same fate.

Because of this genocide of innocence, hundred and hundreds of children live every night sleeping in public places miles from their homes, because they know that if the do not-- they will disappear. They will become just another number in this genocide to which the international community has chosen to turn a blind eye. They will become, in affect, invisible-- Invisible Children.

But there are those who are trying to fight against this slaughter of Uganda's children. They fight to protect these "invisible children." Please, help them help a country full of children who know nothing by fear. Help save the innocence. For more information concerning how you can help and how you can get an incredible video about this horrific reality, visit the Invisible Children home page.

Actually, that does strike me as amusing. Evidence aside, I would imagine that one crane actually fell in as well, and then there was a second crane, so whoever is proliferating this felt the need to finish the joke...

I think that if someone were hurt there would be ambulences on the scene by the time the second crane arrived.

Awesome stupidity. Thanks for sharing Kinkosami.

The last picture is definitely faked - the vehicles in the back ground are not consistant. You can see that the last picture is the same as the picture showing the first crane in the water with the green truck cab stuck on the front. (Note the green van in the back of the picture - it was present during the first crane's foiled attempt. In the background of the second crane's shots, you can see a Munsters style roadster as well as the wrecked white car that started this whole mess.)

Still, the first crane falling in was enough for me!

It would be funny, but knowing it's a hoax really takes a lot out of it. (Not that it would have been funny if anybody really got hurt)
