Рет қаралды 20,300
Күн бұрынControlled Demolition, Inc. (CDI) of Phoenix, Maryland, USA (acting as Explosives Subcontractor to Main Demolition Contractor, Pro-Tech Environmental and Demolition of Grand Rapids, Michigan) performs the preparation for and explosives felling of a 230’ tall radial tile chimney located in Grand Rapids, Michigan on August 27, 2023. Active powerlines suspended from poles were less than 15’ from the face of the chimney.
During WWII, this facility was a major contributor to the war effort, making special plywood that was used in the construction of military vehicles, combat ships, fighter airplanes and tanks.

The annotations are a great addition! A lot of people will be surprised how little explosive, carefully placed, took it down!

Enjoyed the annotations. I love the whoosh some of these chimneys make when they come down. This one did not, but still a great video.

You dropped it into a pond of water, that worked well to keep the dust down.

The way it separated into three large pieces as it had its initial drop, don't think I've seen a stack do that before.

@@toweri_li Trust me I do XD I was referring more to that it broke into three rather than two, but above all, it broke than came back together before the tumble. Just interesting how that happened

Gonna try this with some Legos and an M-80 cut into chunks. Wonder if I'll get it shatter into bricks like you did as it falls?

Curious - how far away from the base did the top of the stack land? Looked like it was only about half of its height?
