Default RIP Harry Donovan

This last Wednesday a great rigger Harry Donovan died. He was one of the first real arena riggers and hung hundreds of thousands of points. He developed techniques, systems and equipment use we take for granted today. He literally wrote the book on entertainment rigging and taught thousands of people how to hang loads safely. The last few years he was instrumental in beginning to bring professional certification standards to what has been an unregulated industry. Harry greatly enriched the rigging community and he will be missed.
