Best choreographed demolition you’ll see this week
Some demolitions are more satisfying than others. This one definitely belongs to ‘more satisfying’.
Wait for it, wait for it.
The twin chimney blowdown at Cockenzie Power Station, Scotland in 2015 was probably one of the most choreographic implosions https://t.co/NZj4VPU0kj pic.twitter.com/8dCipSGZ3o

While this is impressive, doesn't slamming two structures together increase the odds of something chaotic and unplanned happening? https://t.co/6qVzWeqztT

And a nice PS.
My dad used to kid me on that he built the right hand chimney (looking from Tranent) and he won the race with his wee pal Joe who built the left hand one. He said it was quite safe as the gaffer had thoughtfully placed a couple of burst mattresses at the bottom `just in case`. https://t.co/e9Zsr3ErHh
