I was operating a 5 ton wrecker back a few years in the service and I was loading 8" Howitzer rounds on to 5 tons, two 6 packs at a time. I was standing up in the coupola (sp) and that cable snapped (guess it was rotted), 2400 lbs. of rounds to the ground and I like to shit myself. It when right passed my ear.........
