Crane Driver's Day in Russia

Crane Driver's Day in Russia is held on June 4. Or Crane Operator's Day is an unofficial holiday. This event in the first decade of the month June is annual.
Cranes were invented by the Greeks around 500BC. Over the centuries the crane was modernised and its design improved, but it wasn't until The Medieval Period, between the 5th and 15th century, that a jib was added to the crane, giving it the ability to move a load both vertically and horizontally.
