House demoliton 10-10-11

***READ HERE FOR FULL INFO***

First off, I would like to thank the owner for letting me film on the property :)

If I'm right, this house was one of the original farm houses in my area. It even had an iron cook stove.

The demolition people originally started early in the morning, but they ran into electrical problems and so the demolition was delayed until the afternoon. I guess the power company didn't know the power was still on, and they had to come and shut it off manually.

As you may have noticed, I have cut out a lot of the video. The parts I cut out were just the excavator packing down the rubble. If I left everything in, the video would have been almost 30 minutes long. Additionally, I put all the info down here so that I wouldn't annoy/distract you with annotations :)

For privacy reasons, I cannot tell you where this is or who owns it. Sorry!

y are they taking the house down? It looked like it was a decent place

[gbnnn]

@dmorri1982 There was actually nothing wrong with the house, just that the lot is really big and the owner wanted to build a bigger house.

@Gavinjohnston1 This took about an hour, and there was actually a barn addition that was torn down earlier.
