On a site like this, that crane is used mostly for area wide lifts of mostly light weight items like a pipe or beam in the lay down area that is shown. That is also not a giant crane. Definitely operator error, he should know his boom length, lift weight and use corresponding charts inside of cab showing maximum boom angle.
