TERRE HAUTE, Ind. (WTHI) - Since the building started coming down, we've been showing you pictures of the old WTHI building being demolished.
     
But Wednesday, that work hit a snag.

While a backhoe was tearing down part of the building, the machine began tipping over.
     
Eventually it landed on its side.
     
The operator climbed out.
     
Crews brought a crane to pull the machine out, and set it back upright.
