[QUOTE="Dave_W, post: 795018, member: 9521"] This morning the city of San Diego brought down the South Bay Power plant to make way for a park in the lower bay estuaries. Although the shots of the power plant coming down are okay the thing that I found most fascinating was the power of the explosions. The shock wave coming off these explosions was tremendous, you could literally feel impact of these explosions pushing you backwards with each thump. They started spraying water all throughout the bottom section of the structure about 20 min before the explosions started and it took approximately 12 sec from the first explosion (on the other side of the structure and unseen by my viewpoint) to the end and then the cloud of debris came up covering the remaining structure. Unfortunately, the tower on the right did not come down all the way and the local news has been speculating what the city will have to do in order to begin cleaning this mess up. All the steel will be recycled (ie - sent to China) and work will begin on creating a park that will reach out into the south bay estuary.
