Stupid part is they had no line to prevent it rotating.......the wing just nudged the boom a bit......and the results speak for themselves.....
Found a different version and imbedded it. - Scott Rose, WRG Editor

What is it they were trying to do? (Why were they lifting it?)

One of the first things you learn as a crane operator is to never let the load swing and contact the boom or you will have the result on the video. You must have tag lines controlled on the ground to avoid the boom contact. I might have chosen a larger crane to do that pick though.
