A wrecking ball pounds away at the north wall of the old Wichita Eagle building on east Douglas Wednesday afternoon, knocking down giant slabs of concrete from what was an elevator shaft. The demolition will make way for Cargil's new headquarters. The Wichita Eagle / Kansas.com have moved to their new offices at 330 N. Mead. (Video by Bo Rader / The Wichita Eagle)

Hats off to this operator. None of this gentle love tap crap. This guy is awesome!

@TheGozeraye 3 года назад

Really thought that the wrecking ball would be larger

@meowal1192 3 года назад

@King Croc But it still looks smaller than Miley Cyrus's one

@darienwilliams6686 Год назад

Yeah, you think the wrecking ball will be a lot more bigger to do a lot more damage

@James-ij6du Год назад

Then you risk damaging the crane and possibly tipping the crane

@jamesorsby7553 Год назад

The average wrecking ball weighs about a ton, so it’ll get the job done.

@andrewjack5755 9 месяцев назад

Turns out iron is actually pretty heavy

@KPearce57 4 года назад

The operator was a very good one, especially when the three walls fell trapping his ball he released the brake and let it go, rather than damaging the crane.

@TrevorDennis100 Год назад

I had to look at that bit a couple of times. You can see that the crane does move a bit, and there had to have been a chance of it being pulled over if the operator did not react in time, so he either free spooled the cable PDQ or there was an automatic device that did the same if the load exceeded safety margins.

@JoeyWarren-qr3gn 8 месяцев назад

The ball is connected by a tire, it’s made to rip loose so it doesn’t mess up the crane

The steel door being ripped out of its frame at 1:45 was the funniest.

@GettinJiggyWithGenghis 3 года назад

Typically, recycling, of course it depends on who, where, when, what, and why. Bricks were recycled if mortar wasn’t used, stone was broken and recycled if it was mortared, wooden beams would be cut and reused, wicker was repaired, etc.

Sad how they can't use these anymore due to asbestos. I would love to see this in action in real life!

@odom2142 4 года назад

platygetzkillz They’re still used. They used one yesterday to attempt to knock down the “leaning tower of Dallas.”

@globallivestreaming20 3 года назад

Aha! That's looks like Amy Rose with the hammer!

@robert20770 3 года назад

I'm pretty sure asbestos and other haz-mat must be removed before demolition begins. If the building is condemned, due to a fire or other structural problems, the requirement may be waved.

@sorcerykid 2 года назад

@@robert20770 Exactly, glad someone pointed that out. So many people seem to think that people just straight into demolishing buildings without asbestos abatement beforehand.

@Busdude97 Год назад

Asbestos n hazmat work has to be done before they bring in crane trucks n equipment.

In case the ball gets hung in something , the tire will test lose before the crane is damaged

I can't see the number on this crane looks like a 138 link belt , but there's one thing you can take to the bank, that's not being used by manufacturers specifications. I worked for a crane rental company for many years but they wouldn't have been able to rent a crane from me .
