Chinese High Rise Building Demolition Fails! (Compilation)

This video compilation shows the demolition of empty, unfinished high rise buildings in China. To call these demolition efforts "amateur" might be giving them a little too much credit.

The real failure is many of those buildings were built then demolished without a single person ever using them for housing or commerce.

[kipling]

The fact that they need to demolish so many relatively new high rise apartments is the bigger story here.

[vaughn]

At least we know who did not do 9/11 🤣😭

[d.y.]

They need to call the guys from building 7 and ask them for expertise.

[roblqz]

Failure of high rises, require demolition. What an absolute bunch of wasted investments.

[FrankLutz]

Title should be renamed: ‘Chinese Development Fails’ when one sees entire blocks of ‘unfinished’ buildings being destroyed due to blind real estate speculations and cronyism corruption among construction vendors.

How many social credit points did the demo teams lose?

[timfisher]

They should get tips from the US government. They are really good at this

[MC-whxm]

These guys clearly care about the environment... building cities just to demo them LOL

[brod]

Some of those aren't demolitions, they're just Chinese buildings.

[DNice]

I don’t know what’s more dangerous, how the Chinese built these or how they took them down.

[merciful_edits]

Don't they know all you need is an office fire to bring a high rise down into its own footprint in 7 seconds?

[rogerfreeman]

When you built a bunch of housing, but then you remember that your country is in the process of a population collapse.

[gatornation]

The CIA could have told them how to do it

[nymetsfan]

China has always been known for its top notch quality control.

[remyhalo]

They need to be taught how to properly take a building straight down, maybe they need to consult the American 9/11 demolition crew

[JAW]

They build them that fast also. Might explain why they have to demolish in the first place!! Made in China👍🏻

[aidanlanz]

Bruh they demolished like a whole city in one go.

[EmbraceTheDusk]

They clearly didn't study the demolition of Building #7.

[RandomGuy]

It's insane to see a whole town disappearing just because the economy went down.
