Hello Deas, That's a terrible, likely fatal accident! I hate "shorts" as they promote videos with the phones held in the improper portrait(vertical) position. This is the reason "amateur video" labeled videos on television have the black/blurred sections on both sides of the subject. If people would take videos with their phones held in the proper landscape(horizontal) position their videos would fill the whole screen.
This is one of my pet peeves. 
Craig

Well if I’m correct I believe that is actually a rc excavator, just doesn’t look real to me.

After I watched it a second time, I agree with Clayton. There is no crumpled sheet metal or other debris.
I like the title to this post, I think it refers to how the video was recorded!

Thanks Deas
I was having my coffee when I read the second post and I laughed so hard some came out my nose.
And the only one you hooked is double funny.

I tried to get a bit closer to the cab at the top of the "cliff", I do not see an operator nor does the machine look like the "real McCoy".
Trees do not look like trees, more like weeds.
I agree, no sheet metal damage, glass still in the cab.
A staged event with scale out of kilter.

The leaves on the trees are bigger than the excavator cab.

Since we are commenting on this notice, how the excavator mysteriously moves sideways before it starts to fall down.and how the boom flops around like there is absolutely no resistance from the hydraulic cylinders.
Of course, I didn't notice any of that the first few times I watched it fall to its destruction.
