I believe it's not completely real.
The last two pictures are a result of photo manipulation.

Check the 8th and 10th pictures. The cranes are the same, only the color changes.
All the elements of those 2 pics are identical.
In pictures 9 and 10 you can clearly see the photo manipulation.
Especially on the last picture, take a closer look at the crane who supposedly fell in the water...

I'm looking at the cones closest to us. Last few frames are showing it in different spots, and the 9th frame, the red thing, what is that? a person? fairly close to the crane as it's falling in.
some things don't match. even the small boat/canoe upside down. looks like the position how it's resting on ground moves back and forth.

yes, you are probably right

if you look at the water you can see some errors too

this sequence of photos, i remember seeing it since the year 2000 or maybe before

still it seems that one car went to the water, then the first crane came, ended in the water and a second one tried to take both out of the water again but ended in the water too, fake or not, still funny  ;D

this makes me think that most of the first image i saw on internet in the past are mostly fake, the only real thing in internet is....   is there something real on internet?

Check this video:

Most of the comments say the last photo is fake.
In this case we have one more picture at the end.

that last picture is even different from the previous sequence, better edited but if you see two cranes falling to the water, you would move but the people in the picture is not moving at all

probably fake, the green crane manages to take both the car and the first crane out of the water  :)

still funny, worth to edit

Putting aside fakery,
and just thinking about the first episode- 
I see a car above the water line with much water coming out of it. 
A mistake.  When the sunken vehicle is coming up to the water line lifting should go very very slowly to let water drain out to reduce weight. Then, proceed slowly.
Below the water line, lifting is easier as weight is less, mass is the same but there is buoyancy.

yes, the blame goes entirely to the operator of the first crane

also the first crane didn't had enough support to pull the car in that angle, the second did had the support

Wouldn't the blame go to the nut who drove his van into the water first  ???  ;D ;D
