It was scary watching water escaping over the rim of the hill on live tv and hoping it wouldnt fail, the backup spillway was just a dirt hillside, it could erode. It was surreal to see the towns downriver completely emptied out. The spillway is so massive and the hole was huge. Our dams and infrastructure need work and not just here in California.

The last video looks suspiciously like a tactic that's used around the world. When large developers want to put up a new building and surrounding property owners refuse to sell to them, they'll do whatever it takes to get what they want. Including "accidentally" damaging or destroying property. They're willing and able to eat the fines and compensation as most new developments are done by enormous multinational trillion dollar companies who can easily afford it. It's a sad reality.

Hi there. I lived in Springville Utah in 1983 which is just south of Provo, or about 5 miles north of Spanish Fork Canyon. In 1983, a landslide took out an entire community named "Thissle" located in the Spanish Fork Canyon. It is now nicknamed "Thissle Lake" even though it's been drained since. When the landslide took place, it blocked off the Spanish Fork river causing the town to fill with water. It is now a national monument and still has the ruins that can be seen. Ive never seen any videos about this anywhere, just wondering if you can research it and do a video on it or involving it?

In fact, you only need to look at the silo, how it was still founded solidly on the side facing the library building, and with some carefully placed charges in it, while the other side was with only a narrow piece of wall that would crumble first to ensure that the silo would fall towards the apartment building instead. Their mistake was placing the charges as high as they did so that the entire groundfloor (which was actually 2 floores high compared to an apartment)would remain in one piece and still standing. With a little bit of physics, they would have understood that making it lean towards the apartments would also mean that the intact side would slide over the edge of the groundfloor, which would then "catch" the top of the silo and perch it on top, with the weight mainly on the library side of the groundfloor and on the ground itself. Having reached that point, there is no way it would ever fall in the direction of the apartment building as the intact groundfloor now functioned as a perfect blockage to that end, so there was really nowhere to fall but exactly the way it ended up falling. Look at the demolition frame by frame, and you can see how it is forced out and down the side of the intact groundfloor to create an obstacle for planned fall, and hen the buttom part hits the ground, the silo is already of balance towards the library. If the investigators had looked at this particular shot of the demolition, they would easily have reached the same conclusion. The charges should have been placed at ground level instead of 3 to 4 meters up. That was the reason it failed. They unwittingly created the perfect barrier to prevent the silo from falling the right way.

Nice video - thanks for explanations and interesting wider comment too. The Springfield demolition cock-up was avoidable. The Utah "torque competition" was a stupid and polluting waste of time and fuel.

You got me with the wrong date for the metrodome collapse. Had to look it up myself to make sure I wasn’t going crazy.

Bangladesh is in South Asia not Southeast Asia, and that was an example of riverbank erosion (quite common in Bangladesh) not a sinkhole.

This is awesome, very refreshing. I love that they added that I didn't just watch a ton of people die each time. I do wonder sometimes, why was someone filming in the first place? Before explosions I get, but why was someone filming the police helicopter sitting there?

the explosion in number 19 was epic also can scare you so bad. RIP to all the demolition crew.

On Tuesday, January 7, 2020, a few minutes before 12:00, at a railway crossing near Zbąszyń (Wierzchaczewo) Poland, there was an accident involving a passenger train and a truck with a low-bed trailer carrying an excavator. This recording appeared on the Internet, showing the moment of an attempt to avoid a lowered barrier at the last moment and its eventual damage, as well as the set entering a railway crossing, almost directly in front of an oncoming train. The truck driver explained that he was blinded by the sun. For this reason, he allegedly did not notice the lowered barriers, rammed them and entered the crossing. However, the PKP Management Board confirms that just before the incident, the crossing was fully operational and not only the lowered barriers were working, but also the warning lights. kzread.info/dash/bejne/dIOYlNmLZJDaqNo.html

As said, he was driving too fast. There are multiple warning signs before a rail crossing for a reason. They are to warn you that you are coming up to one and to prepare to stop. There is ZERO reason for that drive to use the excuse of being blinded by the sun if he was doing the proper speed. More so when coming upto a curb before that rail crossing.

26:47 damn the amount of fire extinguishers at the ready

i find it funny the way the car just slowly turns into the other lane when the explosion happens

the crane accident in Italy with the crawler crane lifting the viaduct, was not caused by the crane or the crane driver, but the engineers who calculated the lift, they negated to add the effects of wind to the lifting calculation for the load-centre radius in effect, and how wind generates extra lateral forces that will act at the height of the load as leverage, it was further not helped by the raised rearmost ballast moving towards the crane as it tilted

I was wondering if that last guy running away from the crane was the operator. I backed up the video a handful of times trying to decipher wheather or not it was. Turns out all I had to do was wait 8 seconds to find out that information

Great list! However, I was surprised the Surfside Tower Collapse was not on this list. No one was evacuated from that building and 98 people died because it happened in the middle of the night when people were sleeping.

I love how that car at 4:07 just went "NOPE"

#12 was worse than described. When the emergency spillway started to spill it eroded the ground right in front of it and treated to collapse that part of the dam. So then they had to reopen the damaged primary spillway to save a major catastrophe.

Correction No 17: That's not a sinkhole, that's due to severe river bank erosion. And its not in Capital Dhaka, it will be at the bank of big rivers like Padma, Meghna, etc. Those rivers come out with serious forces during the Monsoon in delta areas. Every year few hundred sq km goes under those rivers including hundreds of such buildings. Meanwhile bare land develops on the other banks.

I love that you include the map wach time !

We’re #4! We’re #4! Oh boy, do I remember that storm! Seventeen inches of snow might not seem like a lot, but when it all falls in 24 hours or less, it’s a lot. What was worse was that school in the district where I live (and used to teach) actually got canceled. School in the neighboring district, where I *did* teach, did not. And several of us lived in the city that didn’t have to go to school. (Actually, I think both of the Twin Cities canceled school.). So, it was enough snow to drop the dome on the Metrodome, but not enough to close the school district in the first east side suburb of St. Paul. The old dome material did go to good use though. A friend of ours and some of his buddies bought a few hundred yards of it and with a partnership (Duluth Trading Co., I think) created and sold Domer Bags. They made messenger bags, tote bags, weekender duffels and the like, and sold them. So people were able to buy their own piece of Metrodome and sports stadium history, since the Metrodome was the only stadium of its kind ever built as far as I know.

It occurred in December 2010. The Dome was closed and demolished in 2014 to make way for the new Vikings stadium.
