James Crugnale, an editor with the Weather Channel, on Monday to film the planned destruction of the Georgia Dome, the former home of the Atlanta Falcons and where two Super Bowls were once played. Atlanta now has a new, modern center for its sports: the $1.6 billion Mercedes-Benz Stadium erected next door to the old dome.
After finding what seemed like the perfect spot across the street from the stadium, he live-streamed the crowd gathering for the big moment for 40 minutes.
The dome’s destruction promised to be a powerful sight. The explosives wired inside would go off for 12 seconds. Three seconds after that, the entire entire 71,250-seat stadium would be on the ground as a pile of smoking rubble, according to the Associated Press.
