It is incredible that these people manage to breath without outside assistance. Thanks to countless cartoons, we are all familiar with the image of the man sawing the tree branch upon which he is sitting. Well, multiply that by about 10,000 and you might come close to understanding the stupidity of this dingus. Just days […]

Drone video gets up close with demolition and debris containment curtain. We have just stumbled across this great new video from German demolition company Eckert Industrieabbruch which shows the company’s Komatsu PC450 high reach excavator hard at work in Stuttgart.

If you don’t like heights, look away now. On numerous occasions we have brought you photos and stories from our demolition cousins in China which, when taken together, seem to suggest a reckless, devil-may-care approach to safety.
