Knocking down a silo, demolition
Вставка

- Well on a farm we bought this winter there was an old falling down barn and a few silos. Not only that a couple houses as well. We want to sell the houses, and in order to do that, the barn which would straddle both new lots had to go as did the silo. As you can see in part of the video, the barn is gone and all that remains are the piles of dirt excavated to bury the cement floor and foundation.
Since we wanted to save the milk house, located right beside the silo, we hired professionals to lay down the silo as they know what they are doing.
Nice neat job!!
that was sweet as, definetly the cost effective way to do that.
that was incredible
Loaded them up with our excavator and hauled them to another farm to make the base for a driveway for loading trucks on.
Picture perfect take down.
Thanks for saying so
The original video was 48 minutes. So yea, I have heard of editing. Why don't you post some videos to show off your amazing editing skills so we can critique them?
I understand these were professionals, yet it looks way too dangerous. Some mechanization would surely be more adequate.
who cleaned up the mess?
must have took hours knocking that down??? and blisters?? to the hands.
IVE NEVER SEEN SUCH A BAND OF AMETUERS
the last guys ax was a bit sharper!
i thought i saw thor...lol these guys are bronze...
did twice as much work as you needed to
I think you'll survive.
Come back fred dibnah all is forgiven
why dont they just buy some dynamite

@jednoucelovy I wouldn't want to do it, but in terms of price, this is by far the cheapest.
Money. Selling the 2 houses will make the 265ac behind the silo much cheaper. Cheaper is a good thing in business. Also owning rental houses is a pain in the back side. Once sold I don't really care what the new owners do with the lots so long as it doesn't interfere with my farming. The barn was not safe to leave standing and there is nothing sadder for a farmer to see than a lone silo. I have much more compassion for farming history than you do.

That silo was a lot worse than a regular stave block silo. Every row had rebar and the blocks were hollow. Regular silo blocks one slug would knock each block out. 5-10 minutes you can have a silo down. This was obscene.
Yes I did...thanks. just waited for the whole thing to load and scrolled thru it right to the end. I did like your technique. Simple , effective and did the job.
Looks like he is taking a leak at 5:56
Timelapse would have been better for this , over in 30 seconds instead of a :::yawning:::: 7 minutes.
He knows it's just about to go, gives it another whack, & runs away. Would have been easier to use explosives.
@IHDiesel436
That's all that company does is take down silos. 2 guys and a sledge is the best way to do it.
silos are a wast of time and a pain in the back to run and have to clime 30 80 feet to fix the silo unloader, they should all be destroid. i would of put a hole on each side ,put a cable throue, hooked it to the tactor and pulled it down
@boonitae
I did with our excavator. Used the blocks to make a roadway wider.
At 0:45 they spot a snake in the grass, so they kill it then get back to work.
No, they are from near the Ontario Quebec border near the St Lawrence.
Why not 3-4 sticks of dynamite from the farm shop?? We dont have silos but lots of stumps are removed that way.
Its the same technique...

You sound sleepy. Did you not get enough sleep last night?
Dangerous stunt, although the bricks removed and the hole left was tidy and presentable!!
great... scott!!! @ 6:25
Math isn't boring. It is interesting and very useful!
if you fast forward the video from 2:32 to 6:26 you will se the silo moving .....
I'm amazed how long that thing stood, with like half of it's base torn out!
NOOO!!!!!!! english class is boring especially wn u have to read...
I want to demolish stuff too... But i wont stay to clean it up ! xD
see what a mess you made. you are so grounded!!! lol!!
For sure, and a very dangerous one as well!
First silo demolition video I ever watched.
Should´ve skipped to 6:50 :P
But still pretty cool tho ;)
Looks like somebodys been playing too much red faction
@danielll0 How much money you got?
How many acres was the farm that you bought?

Err, sorry lads, it was the one on the right!
must have took hours knocking that down???
You should of just blew that shit up ;-)
is that the lad from up north
knocking down a silo?
And that would be?
you have some really awesome videos!
That must be well fun doing that XD
is he peeing at the silo at 5:56?
Nicely done!!
HAHA
Thanks.
safety first :)
You gotta give it to these guys though. Takes a pretty tough person to swing a monday hammer that many times. They beat out a helluva lot of block to get the job done. I'd say they earned what ever was paid.

wow that looks fun lol
I always wonder if they punched a couple holes, threaded a steel cable through them and ripped out the blocks (or staves) with a cat or tractor would work. I also wonder how many have been buried because it went too soon, unexpectedly or they moved to slow.
You're a beast, very impressive! You actually make it look safe.
Cool job.
Nice to see.
How long time did it take ..?
that is so neat.lol.
