Cell Tower Burns to the Ground

A cellular tower caught fire in Wellesley, MA. I happened to be driving by, and was at a red light, so I went to take a video clip of it burning, when I caught it falling over.

The horns you hear are several cars in front of me, not behind me. The person at the light was too interested in seeing the tower fall and didn't notice the light turn green, lol. That was good though, 'cause it let me take the video without moving for most of it.

did you really stop in the road just to film it falling? So your one of the douchbags that causes traffic jams driving past something like this. Pull off the road next time.

@Intrabeldin Read the description, asshole. I was at a red light, and the horns were from cars in front of me. The person at the LIGHT was the one who stopped to look. I was just lucky enough to be caught in the jam just long enough to film it.

It didn't fall over from the fire, the fire department pulled it down so they could battle the fire more easily.

@WildWeaselNJ I'm pretty sure it just fell over. The fire department would not have intentionally pulled it towards live power lines.

i'm so curious as to how this fire happened. and why would a fire make it fall over?

[KatsukiLennox]

@theCosmicQueen They were welding at the base of the tower, and somehow managed to catch it on fire. The fire must have weakened the structure or something, I dunno ^^;
