    Nice job! Cleaning all that concrete up is the real job now! Thanks for sharing!

    When I was 5 we lived in the country outside of Indianapolis and our rural neighborhood did not have a nearby church. So, one day a small farm came up for sale and a bunch of the neighbors pooled their $$ and bought it. The intent was to convert the milking barn into a chapel. There was an old concrete silo EXACTLY like you have there and the men punched holes around the base then tied a rope from the top to the back of my dads pickup truck & he simply pulled it over. It was quite a show. !

    Nobody died, but the potential was there. What the hell are spectators doing in the danger zone? Did anyone pay attention in physics class? I saw 1000 different Final Destination moments in one video. Glad it went the way it did, but JUST DAMN!

    wondering if you knock out one block on each side , run a chain thru and tie both ends to all the chains you have and can borrow , then pull from a safe distance w/tractor , would this pull out all the blocks on one side ? safer if it'd work .
