I'd find that alleged[1] 2013 incident more believable if I could find
a single mainstream media or industry report for it. Having failed to
verify the first story in the video, I didn't bother going any further
with it.

[1] Alleged because all the reports I can find for it seem to be based
in social media, groups with an anti wind energy bias, or pseudo-news
generators.

Looks like an industry interest.

Social media.

BBC News? Telegraph? Guardian?


No particular reason why they would cover an industrial accident abroad.

Mainstream Netherlands Media? ....


I don't read Dutch, but it is on an English language Dutch news site:
