Video exclusive – Ben Milam Hotel falls to blast…

Dykon implosion goes according to plan as 90-year old hotel falls smoothly.

It’s a project we have been following with interest for some time now; the explosive demolition of the nearly 90-year old Ben Milam Hotel in downtown Houston.

And that project culminated yesterday in yet another textbook implosion by the Dykon Explosives team that dropped the 10-storey structure in its own footprint to the delight of hundreds of onlookers.

We are hoping to bring you some video footage from inside the hotel when the blast occured. But, for now, this exclusive view makes for great viewing.
