Jan 2 2010You're Doing It Wrong: Chinese Demolition Fail
I don't know if any demolition will top this fail in Turkey, but the Chinese certainly took a shot at it with this effort. And by took a shot I mean killed hundreds of bystanders.
Thanks to Marcos and Sara, who once blew up an apartment complex because they didn't like the name of it. Psychos.

it's like it didn't want to go down without a fight...and still half-way standing. ah, reminds me of those good ol' boxin' movies.

Remember, they will be competing with the United States' industry very soon, as they will crap on the environment and anything else that gets in there way. Either we make friends with them now, or we need to make more shit like this happen.. think haarp can level a building? (by causing an earthquake?)..

Did Alec Mason have something to do with that demo?
26. Hogino Simplex - January 2, 2010 10:09 PM
so THAT's what happens in a Chinese Catatostrophe! I always thought they just allowed the rivers and mud-slides take their people away quietly! I need to go back to my Calculus-Tron and re-think some equations. OFF!
27. miss sarah - January 2, 2010 10:20 PM
yikes. thats pretty awful.
28. techlology - January 3, 2010 5:02 AM
photoshopped. I can tell because the shadows are all wrong.

@20 "make friends w/ them now..."
Uh, dude(s), you're about 30 years too late. There was a little thing called Tianamen Square, where the Chinese army crushed hundreds of dissident students. Look it up.
Afterwards, Bush I fell over himself in cozying up to the Chinese and asking them how high they want him to jump. The U.S. & China have been de facto allies ever since. Both parties have wrestled w/ each other on who can curry favor from the Chinese more.
Get used to the Chinese National Motto: "Plenty more where they came from!"

@ 29, "plenty more where they came from" e'ffing hilarious!
32. Samir and Micheal - January 3, 2010 11:25 AM
and @ 28.... How the hell is this photoshopped Maybe if the building fell over an d then a big aquateen looking fireball happened, and R-kelly is on top of the building, pissing on everyone on the way down, singing Lamb of God, then I might consider the thought of it being photoshopped

@34 GFS... my old nemesis could that be you? Have you been too busy choking on dog ballz to visit this nerdish site?
36. KDUBBLL - January 3, 2010 9:22 PM
should have just flown a couple 747's into the building,it would have fallen straight down at free fall speed perfectly into its own footprint with pulverised core columns.

"AYA JACKIE!!!"
Anyone else notice the jackie chan adventures-esque "AYA!!" from a bystander? I find it sad that they actually do that...
