Video – Ready for our close-up…

Operator’s eye view gives unique insight into what it looks like when a building comes down.

DemolitionNews and its YouTube channel is filled to the brim with videos of buildings coming down, all shot from a safe distance outside the exclusion zone. Fascinating they may be, but they’re about as close to the gritty realism of a demolition site as viewing the football highlights from the comfy embrace of the sofa.

This video, however, is different. It is shot from the operator’s perspective and gives a real flavour of what it looks like when a building comes down and – of course – when the dust comes up.
