Billboard Advertising Advertisement on Building

There are literally thousand of ways to demolish a building but this could be the one and only in the world – demolishing a building with wind power. Well, not really demolished but rather a collapse due to structural failure.
It all begins when a mobile phone company decided to place a huge billboard at the top of a multi-storied building; the hoarding proved to be too heavy for the structure and was destabilized by 10 miles per hour wind. There are no casualties as the authority evacuated the building when it show signs of cracks.

on September 28th, 2008Hi, Ngan,
accidentally I came across this “building demolished by windpower” story on your blog.
I am writing a regular page in “Micky Maus”, a German Disney kids magazine, which features, among other stuff, all kinds of funny and fascinating facts.
Of course this story would perfectly fit there. Would you be as kind as letting me know your source for this? Especially I am interested in where and about when it happened.
It would be nice to hear from you. But if this is asking too much, that’s fine, too.
Best regards,
Uli Vogel
