Despite numerous experts working at the demolition scene, spectators got a horrifying surprise when a derelict building in Turkey toppled over, almost crashing into a nearby building when the explosives were set off.
The 25 meter building in Cankiri, central Turkey, was a flour factory which had been idle since the 1980s and was set to be demolished to make way for a new shopping center.
However, when the explosives were set off, the walls remained intact, causing it to roll onto it’s top. Luckily nobody was hurt in the incident. Take a look at this unbelievable video.
