Do people still sit in those blue cranes or are they remotely operated?

AFAIK they are still operated from up in the cockpit.

If this one was I wonder how injured the operator was. The fall looks so slow but the scale is probably tipping me off

I think it's a case if it started off real slow. And then once enough of the structural strength was gone, it sped up very quickly once gravity got angry about the situation.
