Always nice to see something getting blown up.

This one happened on July 20th, 2008, around 12.15 pm.

Two multi-storey tower blocks in Pollokshaws, Glasgow, built in 1967, reduced to 16,000 tons of rubble in eight seconds by controlled explosions.

The same area, 30th August 2009, around 12.15 pm. 1,000 charges were set off:

Each 23-storey block cost £1m to build in 1967.

Cost of razing: £1.5m.
