I danced in front of it so it would love on forever!

[remo2012]

Too many buildings around for explosions!

[remo2012]

Too old to fix, I guess it was cheaper to build a new dorm.

@remo2012 not at all, check out tallest building ever exploded. they implode like a 200 storey building like right downtown new york. using a wrecking ball is stupid. prolly took like 2 weeks.

@hippo625 explosives may have been overted due to what may lay under the building...i.e.subway, aqueducts, protected state/military infrastucture...

@Fmaster25 that is actually very DELLICATE and DANGEROUS work. The craine swinging weight around at that hight could easily cripple and/or topple the craine...not to mentiont that the heavilyy reinforced concrete ring at the top of the structure is holding the majority of the weight and stress of the structure. explosives may have been overted due to what may lay under the building...i.e.subway, aqueducts, protected state/military infrastucture...But I bet they ate it on labor co$t alone ;-).

And this is the end result of demo company budget cuts! Guy workin the crane is probably half asleep while he's doing this.

FLY A PLANE THROUGH IT!!! it will fall much faster that way!! lol

[pummimaster96]

see you in 30 years

Question? They demolish buildings with explosives even when there are building around. I see one single building ALONE away and using little effective balls. Just blow the crap out of it

[manga12]

I like old buildings mate but the latter ones I care little about from like the 60s on anyway, the biger ball is more stress on the crane at that hight, and it could be a big ball its just the hight makes it look small.

[thislittleaznboy]

one question is that, why they didnt use a bigger ball instead of the little ball
