      Not being in a career that has anything to do with construction I had always wondered how these cranes got up there:

      The models look very 'sketchup' but I can't find any info on what the animation was created with - could this be Sketchup with SketchyPhysics?

        Cool. I've wondered that, too. I also wonder how they get them down when the tower goes up inside the building.

          You probably could do that with sketchy physics but i imagine it would take quite a long time. i think its more likely it was done in something like 3ds max.

              Those cranes has always troubled me - how they are erected.
