- In 1997 a tornado blew something into the KHOG broadcast tower so it was unsafe to climb. It had to be collapsed in place and replaced with a new tower. To control the fall the tower crew tightened the guy wires in the direction they wanted it to fall and then cut the remaining anchor point. It did buckle on the way down. The first buckle point was at the bent portion of the tower proving all the fears were correct.
1:05 lol that's almost disgusting how that bent
The first place it bent was exactly where the leg had the ding from the tornado.

@@Channel4029 What tornado?
@@kofijo10 If you look in the description this tower was hit by debris from a tornado. They deemed it unsafe to climb so it had to come down.
This tower site is only 4 miles from my home. I can stand on my roof and see the new antenna. I wish I were there to see this collapse.
We may be selling the Fort Smith 450 foot tower site to the city of Fort Smith later this year (2016). If it goes through, there is a good chance that one will be collapsed in place also. If you wish to be there, send your email address to engineering@4029tv.com and we will let you know ahead of time.
+Larry Friddle Thanks very much! I would love it!
@@Channel4029 did it end up getting demolished?
@@Slurpee_Burger Which one?
@@Channel4029 the 450ft tower site that was supposed to be collapsed in 2016?
It's amazing to see how they crumble and bend as they fall.
It bent like spaghety
Would've been great to see some thermal imaging on that.
What would that have shown?
+Larry Friddle How fast the metal heats up at the breaking point. It's pretty thick stuff and bending over quite quickly so the metal would get pretty hot I assume.
Interesting
+Larry Friddle Check out "Crushing jack in hydraulic press" to see what I mean. Or don't. Cheers either way.
Was this about a 1000'-1200' tower?
650' . We were restricted due to an airport pattern.
They cut the guy wires on one side only?
What music is used at the end?
I don't know. That part of the video was put together by the news department for our evening newscasts and I wasn't involved.
Was that the one on robinson Mt.?
Yes
Are they trying to replace it tho?
It was replaced immediately.
