Damn, crazy how they had so many lined up like that and perfectly timed the demolitions for this shot.

That must have taken at least five full minutes of preparation!

No, don't be silly. It's a left to right timeline. They exploded that stack into existence. It's much quicker than building it brick by brick.

Smh my head, it's so obvious now!

Construction companies hate this one weird trick for quick jobs!
