Speakers celebrate plans to redevelop a derelict industrial park. A local community leader makes a symbolic first blow with the excavator. Then the demolition begins.
Prior to 1975, the building was a meat packing plant. A 1953 Sanborn Insurance map shows it as "Albert F. Goetze Inc Pork Packers & Sausage Factory"

Fires damaged the north end of the building in 2006 and 2017, and it has been vacant in recent years.
Produced by John Z Wetmore, producer of "Perils For Pedestrians".
That was a very well designed and built building, you can tell it was meant for working hard!
Watching this operator was painful, but it was a very sturdy structure.
Dude very painful, Is it just me or on a structure like this you skin the building first so you can see what you are doing then you go to work and properly seperate the material I mean come on is it me or is he just making a mess. Demolition is not about being messy, there is a certain finesse and art if your gonna be a true operator
they will have to put new pins and bushing in that sledge hammer---i mean excavator!!when the job is done
I cant watch anymore I've had enough, back to playing Xbox lol
The machine operator was the local community leader. Obviously the first time figuring out those crazy levers. He will keep his day job for sure.
As a Construction Company owner for decades...That "operator" would have been off that machine in about 10 minutes...I wouldn't trust him with the dust down hose!
That Komatsu looks used up as hell.
Totally the wrong tool to tackle thick concrete beams. It's fine to strip brickwork and light steel, but bashing away at thick concrete is very damaging to the machine. I would have told him to stop immediately. He should be stripping what he can, and then bring in a hydraulic crusher or pick to finish it off. The operator should know all that.
@@PreservationEnthusiast :)...Idiots abound...It's not his equipment so, he doesn't care...
Anybody else feel sorry for that bucket?
He should have fitted the concrete and metal shear instead of hitting it with the bucket!, a very strong building!
I think the building is scrapping the excavator.
Wow. The community leader and the actual operator must be related. It took them 5 minutes in the beginning of the video to make a new doorway at the top of the building. The bucket of the excavator hitting the outside of the building at times looked like a cat head butting it's human. I love watching your vids, but this demo was painful to watch.
For starters the roof should have been taken down first. Then the windows all smashed out. Then the brick work next. Then the metal beams at the last. Plus a bigger and more powerful mechanical digger.
Equipment not matched to job
Dieser Bagger und sein Baggerführer sind mit diesem Gebäude offensichtlich überfordert.
This excavator and its excavator operator are obviously overwhelmed with this building.
2000 YEARS LATER......
lol
That was a very well-built, tough old building. Sad to see it demolished.
Right especially since new warehouse buildings collapse when it's windy outside like the Amazon warehouse in the Seagirt marine terminal area of Baltimore and killed some people. They definitely don't make them like they used to. I bet that machine could be dropped off on the roof and the building wouldn't collapse but do that on the Amazon warehouse I guarantee it will collapse.
Back then those buildings were engineered to withstand time and upgrades, newer buildings are designed to meet bare minimum standards so they cost less to build and maintain. My husband has an engineering degree and he talks about this all the time.
Wow this hurts too watch
Pretty obvious how clueless the operator is. That digger isn't going to survive for very long with this clown driving it. How many different ways can you subject a digger arm to uneven and sideways impact forces it was never designed for?
John if you look again at the start of the video the operator is standing out of the machine showing someone how to portrait it. I think that is the part you are talking about. He was letting one of the guests have to first crack at the building.
247,000 hours later...it’s done.
Well hopefully they can start construction on the new building sometime in the next two years, because that’s how long it’ll take this joker to tear the building down.
By three and a half minutes in, I'm just like, "take the fucking hose away from him"
you guys need to find new contractors
Great video, just waiting for the finishing of the demolition.... Hope you will download it soon! Cheers!!
Unfortunately I wasn't able to get back up to Baltimore to film the rest.
@@JohnZWetmore that's fine, thanks!
Wrong Equipment
Should have a cutter for that rebar
@@waldounit8 shear cutter & long reach is what should have been used & the building would be down quicker
@@jasinere35 I agree 👍
This building isn't ur typical building it was bomb shelter proof as well
@@UnifiedRadio Still, you don‘t do demolition with a bucket. A quick coupler (Oilquick, Steelwrist, Likufix etc.) + the right equipment is the way to go.
It’s like bringing a water pistol to a gun fight , painful to watch .
Great,,
Well done,,,
👍👍👍😁😁🤭🤭🤭🙋🙋,,,
They should gave used a special demolition excavator. Not only there is no demolition attachment, whish would tear down the building much faster but there is also no protection for the operator's cab. That is not allowed here in Europe.
It's too low for a HRD
“Whack it again !!!! You’ll get it “ !!!!!!!!!!!😄👍🏼
I recognize this building from a previous RUclips video. Dan Bell who is producer who lives in Baltimore did some videos here. He called it the nightmare meat factory.
Wrong machine, wrong operator, everything that I watched was wrong. Was waiting for a hydraulic line get ripped off by rebar. It may have happened before building was destroyed completely. This is a perfect example how not to do this type of job.
The operator must be first day on the job
maybe he want people to leave the place for get Steel pieces for him.....
I think that a special guest was "operating" the excavator.
I know this video demolition was done a Year ago...
whether Then or in this Present time...
(because of Flying debris) Please! People (for Your Own SAFETY) DON'T Stand too Close! when a Building is being Demolished 👍😊
How did it go out of business
What was in this building? It has enough rebar to really screw up the concrete recycling grinder if one is coming in.
id guess a printing office cos it did say on one of the doors before it got ripped off "city paper" & the floors are reinforced to take the weight of some serious machinery
It was a meat packing plant until 1975. It had a variety of uses since then, until it was vacant in recent years.
It was WELL BUILT.
It's a shame to loose Historic Building like this, especially structurally sound ones...
Parts of the back of the building had collapsed where there had been fires.
That building looks indestructible😃⭐️⭐️⭐️!!!
Built to last. Something you don’t see much anymore.
God that was hard to watch, machine will be knackered.
1950 construction..
.built to last forever back then, space could've been rehabbed, but no one does that anymore... the scrappers want that steel. Wrong tool for the job, should have had a hammer and shear head.
Just a guess but the operator is not the one buying the replacement teeth for that bucket.
Couple thousand $$ in salvageable glass block there. Might as well destroy it.
man, this was a great building, sad to see it go :(
You need a set of sheers for that building that bucket is not enough ,this is frustrating to watch I’m off

日本の小松製作所のパワーショベルですが、解体業者が日本国内の小松ディーラーさんから直接購入したものですか?
Komatsu has dealerships in the United States.
I GUARANTEE it wouldn't have taken me 40 minutes to put that size hole in that building. Worst operator i've seen in a WHILE!!! Like watching paint dry,.......
That must have been the lowest bidder
Hahaha haha took the words out of my mouth homie, all about how you bid, lowest paid operator too probably lol
shame see all those heavy glass window blocks get destroyed they are worth money alot of people repurpose them and that machine is definitely not the proper machine for that job! all the bucket and thumb pins are gonna be toast before they get done with the first wall
I'm no excavator operator, but surely it's best to knock a few windows out first, then the brickwork in between, then the roof?
Operator needs alot more seat time he probably would have been better on cleanup
That building resists!
Donald Duck is back with his demolition again!
I never operated these. But I think I can do soo much better.
Pitiful, pitiful, pitiful ! ! !
that company needs a new machine driver that guy is usless
I like the US, but why do you guys use shovels in combination with claws so often over there instead of using a quick coupler with various attachments?
e.g. sorting grabs, concrete shears and metal shears
and next time please use a CAT
This WAS not a real demolition company...It was a bunch of jabronis that rented this equipment..Rest assured, we have more and better demo equipment than your whole country and the entire EU COMBINED!
Poor machine... Need new pins and bushings immediately. Wrong attachment for this building...
What's going to happen here?
Best OMG moment 36:32
Let's see if it's easier while standing on tracks?
there is another guy in the excavator.... The guy on track learn to another person.
There you go.... in about 2000 years.
Excavator will be scrapped at end of shift
By the end of this video I would of had half that building separated #1 and shred in a pile . Along with bricks separate pile. Waiting on trucks.
Questo si è lavorare bene complimenti
Watching this seems to indicate it's not very derelict.
The concrete structure in front is pretty solid. Parts of the back of the building had collapsed where there had been fires. And many of the bricks in front are crumbling.
How in the hell do these half ass companies who suck at demo get these kinda jobs? These guys have no clue how to go at a building like this.
If they build houses that well you would not know there was a tornado outside
First Day at the job?
hope you get 10k subs or 9k
Thanks. I'm up to 11K. Should reach 12K soon.
Where is the TNT the excavator operator is so slow
Why stop there get a couple of tanks lol
@@andygrundberg8670 Or just get a better operator
But the tanks is a good idea
Goes a lot faster when you fast forward the video.
🧐 was macht der da ?
Oilquick and a Nice set of Attachments would do much better and the excavator wouldn‘t be tortured like that xD
holy shit, is there an old lady running that excavator?
I switched it off after seeing the operator weaken the top part of the structure then start working underneath said area causing rubble to hit the arm and cylinder. Idiot.
This is the right way to operate a machine wrong.
Better equipment, better operating
Lady way too close for comfort
Very bad operator i am a operator by my self in demolition work and he is the baddest operator i heave ever seen
OMG
Should of gotten letsdig 18 to do it would of been done by now
Exactly what I was thinking. Chris would have had that building completely torn down in a day.
Mit solchen Aktionen kann man den Bagger beschädigen
Good video as all ways.
Der zerstört nicht das Haus sonder den Bagger hahahahhaha lul Schwaaaaach!!!
Just get a jackhammer attachment for that machine and an acetylene torch, those will do the job!
Operator sucks!! I guess they were paying him by the hour
Lowest bid no doubt.
I wince for that machine. Some joker bolts a thumb on it and thinks that makes him a demo contractor. Dunno what the rules say in Baltimore but he really shouldn't be doing demo without a FOPS / Rock guard.
What a waste of time and wear and tear on the equipment he is using, just to say he demoed a structure! Was some local business dude operating that machine and from the beginning you could see the severe knowledge deficit. Laughable incompetence!
First thing to do is yank that wannabe out of the seat. Maybe then the demo will get done on time. My grand daughter can operate better than that and she is just starting.
La casa quedo bien
I watch so many of these demolition videos, where it's obvious, the guys who operate Deere's and kamatsus...are inferior to the power that caterpillar has......everything I've seen with a cat excavator....rips right thru it so much faster
Wie schwach die Baggerschaufel montiert war, oh man bruh......
It was a tough school. lol
That guy on machine has not got a clue
Зачем такое крепкое здание сломали?! Стеклоблоки можно было бы заменить на окна, поработать с территорией вокруг!
Кладка качественно сделана, ломается не по швам!
Ça irait plus vite avec un camion équipée de une boule en acier trempées qui se balance contre le bâtiment comme dans le ancien temps et le bâtiment serai plus vite démoli
Busquen a Andrews camarata
Dude running the machine needs a few lessons in strong points of a building .he goes for the strong places headers and trimmers instead of the pilars between the glass and the top of the walls
El operador le falta conocimiento de demolición, debe abrir más espacios hacia los lados para debilitar la estructura, job bad
You can tell this equipment operator has no clue what they are doing.
I'm glad they are tearing down that building its been there for years now. Why are they using one Construction truck to knock down building. One it's not going to help. I live there Baltimore md. The water is not powerful enough to spray. They can use at least two more to bring down the building make it more easier. Those people's shouldn't stand around. They can get hurt
I hope there not paying by the hr
Deben demoler con una Caterpillar
This operater has no mechanical skill, construction knowledge, and has not no knowledge what goes on with hydraulic cylinder when he/she hits the solid surface.
I should stop watching. Hydraulic hose could blow at any time.
