Correction to video: Molten metal is not necessarily the result of every demolition. I've done a little research and have more to do, but since the "molten metal" views are a minor part of this video, I've decided to leave the video up. But, aluminum melts at 1220.666 °F, steel at 2500 °F, iron at 2795.0 °F. So molten metal would occur depending on the heat that was emitted from the charge.
This video shows several examples of controlled demolitions and compares them to steel buildings which have sustained fire. This video was created as a 9-11 research tool, but I must admit, since I created it, it is somewhat one-sided...but in a nice way. :)
