How demolition used to be done

At the rate the world progresses, technology updates, and buildings disappear, it's easy to forget how demolition used to be done. Thankfully with the advent of online video through services like YouTube, we can see how it used to be done.

The video above is a home movie of Dukinfield near Manchester which was being demolished "in the name of regenration". This was filmed somewhere between the end of the 60s and beginning of the 70s.
