The 570 foot tall smokestack at the St. Paul XCEL ENERGY coal power plant gets BLOWN UP! I decided to film a documentary about it.

And I do believe I'm the first person to do so :)

  • I love the kids laugh when it hits the ground, good video!

  • Great video. I was on the bridge with my family. A generation from now, they will be wondering why we wasted natural gas for electricity generation.

  • This was excellent. Not only did you manage to get great footage of the actual demolition, but you also captured the atmosphere (figuratively, and also literally!) before and after. The footage near the end, when the dust surrounded the bridge was almost surreal, in a way. ;)

  • Excellent video, I like the narrative nice music. I was on the Cliff Rd side above Shepard we were hella close, the shock wave was a bit of a slap in the face and the ground shook as I am sure it did for you but, cool to see it from different vantage points as well as the crowd reactions.
