    Fascinating video and demolition is something I have always been interested in, especially coming from Glasgow and the amount of 60's tower blocks currently scheduled for demolition. The preparation work is fascinating.

    That was fascinating and impressive. However, I would not have been keen to be the homeowners who were so close to the action (7:00).

    Dorman And Long Middlesbrough, Were The Company Who Provided The Steel For The Sydney Harbour Bridge in Australia, But, The Two Men Responsible For Its Construction, Were Scotsmen, Wallace Ellis, And Businessman Mungo Scot.We're Everywhere, Scotland Forever, Jimmy Campbell.😂😅😊

    It's sad when you think of all the design and construction that went into them, months of architects drawings wipped out in seconds

      All that steel. All those contracts, all those jobs putting it together. Imagine, they would have been carpeted, painted, wallpapered, full kitchen and bathroom suits.

      @@count69 Refubrished? With who's money? Rembember that 5 thousand people lived there, in extremely in-humane conditions. The maintenence costs were unbeliavable high and everyone living there was at huge risk of being contamined by asbestos, which couldn't be removed from the buildings, unless they were stripped down to it's core.

      The workers set up bombs all over the flat, and stand FAR away, and click a button and they all blow up at the same time! 🙂

    This doesn't look so successful. Looks like a near miss.
    The building went down all over the place
