I was thinking that myself but then realised most of the 12 tonnes mentioned is going to be towards the base (engine, etc). A double decker isn't going to be a top heavy object else it'd tip over any time it hit a corner a bit too fast
They'd have had to do some serious tipping to make it fall over https://i.imgy.org/NO2zZn26.jpg https://i.imgy.org/NO2zZn26.jpg
- userbinator 11y agoI know they can stand some extreme tilt angle, but those tests are done with a slow and gradual rotation instead of a quick burst of force; being heavy also means that once it starts moving, it's harder to stop... so it's a good thing that those involved in lifting it were not too strong.
