Edited “crane” is this big machine that elevates heavy construction stuff in the vids last segment crane was holding up that glass dining box, so the host probably just made a pun out of that. “thanks for craning your eyes” = thanks for lifting your eyes to the tv

@Tom Meunier thank you! I understand the rest of the puns. Can you look at my second question about leading-up as well?

At 9:32 the announcer says, "You won't have to CRANE YOUR NECK to look around, assuming you can handle THE SUSPENSE." This sentence has two puns: "Crane your neck" and "handle the suspense: "Crane" when used as a verb means to stretch, in order to see something, like the crane (a tall long-necked water bird) does. It's used almost exclusively with "...one's neck". "Handle the suspense" means to deal with the feeling of excitement or fear or uncertainty before a significant event, but "to suspend" means to hang something from a height. The pun here is because you are literally dangling (being held in suspense) by a crane. The later attempt at humor, "...crane your eyes" was because the announcer tried to be funny, but is not as clever as his writers. Nobody says "crane your eyes." People may understand it, but they'll consider it a "mixed metaphor" of a sort. Normally we would say, crane your neck (to stretch to see something you normally can't) or peel your eyes (to look intently, to be very observant) and he mixed these two, trying to be funny on live TV.
