A plan to demolish a building in Cankiri, central Turkey went badly wrong when the 25-metre high structure rolled over onto its roof.

The building, a flour factory built in 1928 which had been idle since the 1980s, was scheduled to be demolished to make way for a shopping centre.

14. They should have flown a plane into an adjacent buliding
That way, it would have collapsed neatly into it's own footprint.

Leave it to a DUmmie to insult the memory of 3,000 dead people.

Might have been fun to be on, say the 12th floor...


Shoot, it would have been a BLAST
