I was NOT going to let these two get away, especially with their impending demolition....
Yesterday, i got my chance and i sure as hell wasn't about to waste it.
the rest are, of course on my flickr.
MORE than epic, i'm still feeling the burn!
I was talking to one of the demo guys, and as of today these things are pretty much sitting on their own weight
Support beams have been cut right through so if you WANT to attempt it, try and lean into the drop zone?
A total shame that these are going, the last of Swan Hunters... but climbing up you can see they are in pretty bad nick. It would take an awful lot to get them back into commission again. Shame, but what's a shipbuilding crane with no ships to build?
Sad, very sad.
