Crank breakers wanted

They're all great stories! Sad but great.. I just believe a lot of horror stories about broken cranks are due to other catastrophic failures something seizes something breaks loose causing unbalanced stress, or as stated just a flaw in that particular crank. There is no doubt that forged crankshafts are superior but I am amazed with the strength of a quality cast unit and how many of them put up with the flogging that they do.
