    There is another lesson to be learned in that debacle.

    That is that the snatch strap that failed was of the correct load rating in the system they had.

    It was the weakest link, so that 'only' it, and none of the metalwork went flying through the air.

    A breathtaking effort really, they are lucky to have walked away.
