PSA: Just read the OSHA crane accident stats from 2022

I was looking up some regs online and saw the official report. There were 42 crane-related deaths that year. I knew it was dangerous, but seeing that number really hit me. It's a solid reminder to never rush a lift, even when the foreman is pushing. How do you guys stay sharp on the safety basics when the schedule gets tight?

What's your go-to safety check before a lift?

My buddy skipped checking his sling once and it snapped mid-lift, @kevin_schmidt97. Now I always look for cuts or frays first.
