Is there any space between the bottom of the doors and the seating surface of the door frame? Also have you confirmed which door overlaps the other? I feel like you could get this opened with a combination of the following: heat the hinges until they are red hot then quench with something like WD40. The heat with help breakup the rust and pull the Lubricant into the joint. Next if there is space underneath either of those doors get some 20 ton bottle jacks underneath the non hinge side of the doors. It likely won’t lift them alone but it will put tension on the hinges and over a few days it might help it break the rust up in the hinges. Next bolt a 20-30ft I beam to the door so it sticks out like a giant finger pointed away from the hinge. Note you will need to reenforce the bolt area with some very heavy steel. From this point you should be able to use the excavator to pull up on the far end of the beam and the leverage multiplier the beam will provide should get the door to move. Once it’s moving you should be able to open it completely with the excavator and loader working together with some cables.

construct a steel frame portal over the doors, and use threaded rods like mining "roof bolts", in large numbers to yank the doors out of their recess. you can literally apply thousands of tons of pressure to pop them.

Seems like to raising one of the doors might be more easily done by pushing upward from under the door, using a large capacity hydraulic jack, & a heavy duty support structure for the jack. While this method wouldn't raise the door fully open, it should be able to release ("break loose") the door from the rust friction, which prevents free movement of the door hinges & of the door itself within the door frame. Then, maybe a heavy bulldozer could be used to pull the door the rest of the way open using large steel cables attached to the same lift location on the door as was used by the crane. Another method would be to construct a frame with a large diameter pulley to route the cable from a vertical pull to a horizontal pull, then use a bulldozer to pull the cable. Better still, use a block & tackle cable & pulley system attached to the bulldozer & to the cabIe (which is routed over the frame's pulley, & attached to the door). I believe this way, a large bulldozer could provide (possibly much) greater pulling force than the crane could provide lifting force. Cranes, in spite of their rated lifting capacities, are always limited in lifting capacity by boom angle & boom extension length, & counterweight amount. The farther the boom is extended, & the lower the angle between the boom & the ground, the less the crane can safely lift, depending on amount of counterweight on the rear of the crane's superstructure.

Stack a pile rail road ties 10 feet tall , at the edge of the door so that the Chain pull is 45 degree . Slowly just Nug on the 5-10 chains . (You can bust the cement doors in half, have fall in ). The are weighted and pivoted so take very little effort open them( they are Cat levered) Have 1- 2 i beams ready slide across the opening . prevent door fall in .

Drop one of those 2” steel plates they use to cover work sites in the roads and lay that baby on top of the door. Use the compactor all around the top of both doors like it’s getting a good massage. You can observe it from underneath with binoculars and a spot light from the end of the silo enter ace. You should see a good amount of dust from all the seams. Then hit that plate a few times with the hydronic breaker. This should break free any calcification and rust that has developed along any seams. If that did not open then the only way to get it done short of destroying them would be to restore the hydronic systems and hit it from both ends. Same method on that big concrete plug you were trying to remove. But that’s my opinion spending your money. Keep the videos coming.

click bait . the crane didn't fail , the operated refused to exceed its limit which is standard . mentioning the cost of the crane is irrelevant to the video , it it does support the click bait .

it was cleverly worded click bait and you know it ,so doubling down hardly negates your original intention . who would respond to a comment such as mine unless they were triggered by the accusation , knowing full well that it was true .

Be careful, you might shock load the crane and you have a bad day get your 200 ton mobile crane 🏗️
