Here's The Weirdly Mesmerising Sight Of 116 Excavators Tearing Up An Overpass
The main section of this overpass in Nanchang, China was efficiently taken down in just one night using an army of diggers
This entire 24-year-old overpass was removed causing just 56 hours of traffic disruption, with the main part of the structure torn down in one night thanks to a massive deployment of diggers.
Impressive, no?

So 2 days, and a quarter of a day of traffic disruption? Not bad…
It would be 56 months in the UK !
Meanwhile, it takes my local road work blokes about a week to paint a line and lay one square metre of tarmac. #justaustralianthings
That’s some quick work. Meanwhile in the western world, in the same amount of time for the same amount of money there’s be about 6 guys, 5 of which standing around and one of which sitting in a truck waiting for the other 5 to take their fingers out and start working
THIS. IS. MADNESS.
Thats fast but look at them wearing flip flops on those machines
Destroying a bridge in Pakistan? Oh just leave it there.. no one is gonna bother anyway..
Did you think I’d let you roll in a Hyundai ? :D
In Costa Rica bridges don’t get destroyed, they get “repaired” ad nauseam
