Look, Up in the Sky! It's a Hot Tub!

We've had the blimp, the space shuttle, even UFOs dot the local skies, but recently it was a hot tub heading over the top of a house to get into the back yard.

Sometimes the only way to get a hot tub into a back yard is to hoist it over the house, and there aren't that many places to help you do that. 

"We do this a lot, it's a lot easier than it looks," said Adrik Vartan of High Crane Services, based in Burbank, who was hoisting the seven-by-seven square foot hot tub that weighted approximately 1,000 pounds.

See the video above. Have you had a hot tub situation? What have you done? How did you get it into the back?
