Colorado Landmark Gone in Two Quick Blasts
Grand Junction Sentinel ^ | 4/18/13 | Christopher Tomlinson

We drove past Cameo so many times when I was growing up on our way to and from Grand Junction. Kind of sad to see it come down. I understand there is a proposal to turn the property into a rifle/pistol range of some sort.

Check out the mid-April snow!

All I could think of was the Vonage commercial, with the guy cutting down the tree and the tree falling on his car or truck.

(Now I have that stupid tune running in my head)

I’ve watched plenty of movies/vids of implosions. That actually seems pretty typical for a stack implosion, right down to the sideways drop.
