Video – Le grand bang…!

Double-blast fells half of French power plant.

Just when we were thinking we’d have a nice, quiet Friday afternoon, an email drops into our inbox to shatter the peace.

The following films come courtesy of our “grand ami” Vincent Ollive at Ginger CEBTP Demolition and shows a pair of blasts at an EDF power plant near Bordeaux, France. Acting as explosive sub-contractor to Colas Deconstruction, the company blasted the first two of four structures. The remaining two are scheduled to for implosion in March 2014.
