Winds from Hurricane Irma were so powerful that they downed three construction cranes in Florida.

Pictures and videos came in after two cranes crashed in Miami and another crashed in Fort Lauderdale.

Residents reported hearing a sound before leaving their balconies and looking out of their windows to see the damage. Prior to the hurricane, residents were warned by officials of the possibilities of toppled cranes. Thankfully, no one was hurt.

Other videos showed cranes rotating in the high winds.
