Raw video captures implosion and roof collapse.
We’re still trying to figure this one out. Was this implosion supposed to take out the roof and leave the outer walls standing?
Either way, this implosion at the world-famous Deutschlandhalle” arena this past Saturday makes for interesting viewing.
The Deutschlandhalle, erected in the capital in 1935 one year before the Olympic Games, was the largest sports area in the world at the time. Later it became the scene of huge party rallies.
Crowds turned up to watch as explosives were used to demolish the building. A new £65 million conference and exhibition centre will be constructed in its place by 2013.
