My son and my nephew were nearly crushed last week when the cable on a crane on a ship they were loading in Georgetown, broke. A ton of cable and tackle fell on the deck but thankfully they were able to get clear. This sort of work is inherently dangerous but this ifs the lot of the hardworking men supporting thier families here in SC.
