Video – Helicopter-cam captures ore dock demolition…

Pair of Genesis attachments start work on Wisconsin ore dock.

So you have a pair of excavators, each equipped with a Genesis attachment, taking down a 550 metre (1,800 feet) long, 25 metre (80 feet) high ore dock in Ashland, and you’d like to capture the demolition for posterity.

You could make a cameraman walk the length of the dock but, with much of the deck removed, that might have health and safety implications. Of course, you could trek out by boat, but the rocking motion could hamper the movie and there’s always the chance that that expensive camera equipment could get wet. Or, alternatively, you could shoot the whole shebang from a helicopter!
