Can you determine what exactly is wrong with this rigging photo?

The answer below:

The chain sling shown is configured as a single choke, with a master link at each end. The master link near the load is being used improperly.

Master links are for in-line loading only, but since it is in contact with the load it may be subject to bending forces.

Chain Sling - Answer
