Truth be known I'd have prefered that slick 'burst mode' your camera has.

Towers razed in overnight blasts





Five tower blocks have been razed to the ground in a series of dramatic
overnight demolitions.


Two 19-storey flats in Glasgow's Sighthill were brought down at 0230 BST
as part of a regeneration programme.

About 65kg of explosives were used to demolish the towers on
Fountainwell Place in just 10 seconds.

In Millarston, Paisley, three high rise flats were reduced to 3,800 tonnes
of rubble by a controlled explosion at 0600 BST on Sunday morning.

The Glasgow flats, at Fountainwell Place, were built in 1967 but have been
unoccupied since December 2007.
