Two chimneys blown up for charity



thisisleicestershire.co.uk, part of the Leicester Mercury, has a great post and video up about the Desford Steel Tubes factory chimney demolition that didn't go to plan.

Our own John Woodward is quoted as saying:

This has never happened before, we've never even had one tower standing after a blast. The odds of one tower remaining up is 100 to one, the odds of that happening to two towers is about 10,000 to one.

You can read the full story here over at thisisleicestershire.co.uk
