The second set of pictures near the site are from cmraseye that provides another angle on the explosion. He wrote, "The blast was concentrated at the front of the corrugated out building. Lots of debris blown into the air, bamboo sticks, 55 gal drums ...all kinds of things in the air, will probably look cool on film. ...you can see the pyro/dust bags ignited, blowing out the dust, and several barrels being launched into the air. Contrary to the captions on the Tribune photos online, there were no cameras mounted in the baskets of those lifts. It appears the lifts were cabled to support the frame of the outbuilding to keep it from collapsing on itself when they blew the roof panels off." You can find Chicago Tribune's pics of the boom here. Thanks Jeffrey Marshall for the link.

Here is my video on it http://youtu.be/fQLoE0JNmUI
ReplyDeleteDudemus:wow!....nice explosion, thought it couldve been larger with this whole "mother of all explosion" talk. I like the desert bomb drop on ROTF much better. That was ridiculous.
ReplyDeleteI'm not watching this, I'll watch it when I'm in the theatre.
ReplyDeleteI actually thought they where going to demo the silos or something lol
ReplyDeleteDudemus: yeah, you know its going to look more destructive than what it looks like in real time. So I understand your position martinus@
ReplyDeleteOne of the flags looks like the flag of Hong Kong.
ReplyDeleteIt's so weird. I pass by these silos all the time going down I-94. And now they're part of a TF movie. CRAZY.
ReplyDeletethis movie will be epic thanks Micheal Bay and Marky Mark li bing bing and Nicola Peltz good one
