Two huge cooling towers imploded in China



The video above is of two huge cooling towers that were demolished on October 29th. Their specific location isn't known other than it's the Fengtai Beijing Feng Yungang Thermal Power Corporation compound in China.

The larger of the two towers is 95 metres tall. The smaller is still a respectable 65 metres. The blast required the use of 90kg of explosives and 1,400 detonators. Unlike a lot of the implosion failures we see on YouTube from China, this job seemed to go without a hitch.
