The blasting of a chimney at the former Henninger Brewery in Frankfurt am Main, Germany, Sachsenhausen on December 2nd, 2006.
Finalist of Wikipedia Picture of the Year 2008.
Damn, crazy how they had so many lined up like that and perfectly timed the demolitions for this shot.
That must have taken at least five full minutes of preparation!
No, don’t be silly. It’s a left to right timeline. They exploded that stack into existence. It’s much quicker than building it brick by brick.
Birth of a chimney
Chimney getting excited!
Wow the whole tall thing just fell right down into its own footprint.
“Diddja laak tha’?”

I’m pretty sure it is actually the fastest chimney construction ever!
See?! It even forms a dust cloud around the workers because they work so fast!
German efficiency at its best.
First i was like “Why are there so many chimneys in a row?”
