So what's the best live feed? Link please for us out of towners
WWL TV is showing news (live coverage)
Fox 8 (WVUE) is just showing live feed of the building, no commentary

Probably a dumb question but I think they said the first implosion will be the booms which will fold down vertically alongside the upright crane structure. Aren’t the booms hanging over the building so how would that go?

I heard they are going to use jet fuel to melt the steel beams.

Is the Fox feed cutting out for anyone else or is it just me?

Probably sprinkling in some thermite for good measure

That's what I am questioning. the jibs are long and over the building. Unless they are shearing the jib I can't see it working as described.

I’m back on the corner of Canal and Robertson. There are tons of people out here. Crazy

Was that the workers warning over the radio in the background of the fox feed just now?

Are the big yellow boxes toward the back end of the cranes the counter weights? The ones hanging below the cranes structure.

Yes. 40 tons per genius UNO engineer. Meh! “40 tons times 2 - that’s 80,000 pounds.”
Posted on 10/20/19 at 1:37 pm to TxWadingFool
so... chances these 2 cranes end up taking down the rest of the collapsed building?
Posted on 10/20/19 at 1:38 pm to tgrbaitn08
can you see the cranes?
gal on WWL is at rampart & St. Peter and looking right at them

It’s time the leader of this city makes an official announcement to relay what is occurring to her people.
Every time we hear 20 minutes, it’s backed up to an undetermined time. This is a complete shite show.
