bbc reports the jib broke but they may be wrong

my photo is poor, taken from distance against the light ... however, just looking at it for a minute ... one of the four pillars of the tower had buckled near the base & the stump of the tower was tilted about ten degrees off vertical ... the tower appears to have snapped at a hinge point ... possibly catapulting the whole top section of the tower with the driver's cab and the two jibs still attached
