[DeTomaso] Hoists

[Sean Korb]

It takes some faith in the mathematics, but there is a description of the
engineering safety in the "What makes it so safe" link.

Frank Loyd Wright famously tried to put up his famous cantilevered support
beams but the inspectors and city engineers told him he was insane.  He
went to an empty field and had concrete poured to the specifications that
he had calculated.  It works.  And he built his buildings after all.

I just barely passed my stressed vector analysis courses in college so take
anything I say with a grain of salt, but the building you are sitting in
uses the same math.
