Gramercy Group, Inc. ( gramercygroupinc.com ) completed primary demolition of Giants Stadium in East Rutherford, NJ at the Meadowlands Complex on Monday, June 28th, 2010 with the Final Down of the South West Radius at Gate C. At approximately 8:14 PM under partly cloudy skies the 6 tier radius section adjacent to the pedestrian helix was pulled down successfully by 3 heavy Komatsu Gramercy excavators. Views include remote cameras placed on one of the support columns, to the left of the structure on the ground about 50 yards away, in front of the falling structure about 75 yards away and inside the structure mounted in the DEMO-CUBE (tm). A custom designed and welded demolition proof camera enclosure. An additional camera shooting from the left side captured the pull down at 210 frames per second in super slow motion.

Nice Video! I like the multiple camera angles, and it looks like the inside camera may have even survived.
Awesome video! That took a lot of planning.
It's an amazing thing when someone finds exactly what to do with the gifts given to them. Your work keeps getting better with each project. Thanks Stephen for sharing this with us!
