A loud crashing noise echoes throughout the area.

Another clip is filmed at the base of the site, which is cordoned off, where multiple construction workers are seen watching the building collapse.

The aftermath reveals people trying to scour through the rubble and other fallen objects, as the camera pans to show the broken scaffolding.

It took place on 25 May at Area A of the Jincheng Yunxi Commercial Complex Project, located in Wuyang Town, Zhang County, China.

According to local reports, the tower crane was rising from the 23rd to the 25th floor and due to improper operation, the vehicle’s arm fell off and hit the building vertically.

Three workers fell to their deaths, and the company is currently speaking with their family members.
