    Great videos! Thank you for recording as much as you do and giving as much detail. Other RUclipsrs only post like two or three minutes. You actually dedicate a lot of time and it’s very much appreciated!!

    The implosive company is CDI Control Demolish Inc and they are working with GGG to get the tower ready. The black mesh floors are the explosive floors where the dynamic will be placed. CDI has done a lot of explosive sites in Las Vegas before like Stardust, New Frontier and Rivera. I hope this is helpful information.

    Great video. I’ve watched all of them. Very interesting to see the progress. It’s funny whenever you zoom in, there’s always a good handful of guys just standing around on their phones lol. They don’t think anyone can see them. 😂

      I was thinking the same thing. I get a lot of video where they aren't working that I cut out. I don't want to get anyone in trouble. LOL

    Your videos prepared me for the shock of seeing what was left of the Tropicana when I came to Vegas last month

    Only the blast floors will get the black covering I believe.

    Thank you for the video updates! I wonder if they plan on repurposing that crushed concrete for the new stadium

    The black fabric is a geotextial material used to minimize dust during the implosion.

      Yeah the NW tower (Paradise) was built in 1979. The SE (Club) was built in 1986.

    The crane is being used for concrete cutting& drilling company that is their trucks beside the crane and moving tarps around to other floors more than likely.

    Today, Wednesday, crews were attaching the chain link fencing to floors and rolling them down to lower floors. Saw a picture of them on 3rd floor

  • @bigelarkin1
    @bigelarkin1 4 месяца назад +3

    Just depends on how they want it to come down they could have it fold in on it’s it’s self

  • @darryl7694
    @darryl7694 4 месяца назад +1

    So holes been drilled, chain link fence goes on first then wrap , then same across the whole floor .
    This prep work and once ok with permits they will drop in charges and rig it all up
    Then kaboom

    If the columns are wrapped in black means they are drilled packed and waiting on the others to tie in

    @jeancunha6796 4 месяца назад

    I just read they aren't allowing public viewing. We are coming to Vegas for my son's bday, just to see this! Any ideas how to view it?

    • @Raiders1967
      @Raiders1967  3 месяца назад

      I read that also. I'm thinking they say this so people don't try to go close to the Tropicana. I would suggest finding a spot around the front of the Luxor or Mandalay Bay. You can see both towers from that side. They are planning a drone and fireworks show so we have to be able to see it from somewhere. I'm trying to get a strip facing room at the Excalibur to watch it from the room.

  • @Jason-mv7qo
    @Jason-mv7qo 4 месяца назад +1

    I wonder if they keep one elevator running in each building or if those guys are navigating staircases?

    • @Jason-mv7qo
      @Jason-mv7qo 4 месяца назад +1

      Actually answered my own question at 8:36, can see guys entering an elevator.

  • @edhamtil5380
    @edhamtil5380 4 месяца назад

    Blast curtains. Crews are wrapping columns - plywood box, wrap and fencing.

  • @edhamtil5380
    @edhamtil5380 4 месяца назад

    Only certain floors will have blast curtains
    First, fifth and 18th floors

  • @edhamtil5380
    @edhamtil5380 4 месяца назад

    The crane was being used to hang the blast curtains

    What camera do you use to get that insane zoom-in from such a long distance? I need this camera. Thanks.

    The boxes at 13:26 are likely going to be used along with "conveyor belting" to catch the flying liquid metal when the LSC's cut the steel beams.
