I had to know where that chimney fell. From the angle I was sure that it was going to fall on the adjacent structure. But as seen from a different angle it misses the building and lands in an open area.

Excuse the diversion, but could not, not know.

I see your points, but I would like to give the engineers the benefit of the doubt. Shenyang is one of the biggest cities in China and has been one of the biggest heavy industrial centers in east Asia. These engineers have been building and pulling down building a for a long long time. When its engineers want to do something in a way that even us the non-engineers scatch our heads, I would tend to believe that they would realize what's wrong with it long before us. Yet they still did it. Well, I would like to think that the had their reasons and they had taken all the precautions. And their reason for doing it this way must be good enough to convince their boss. Let's face it, no one wants to take the responsibility for messing up such a big job. It would make you look bad on the national level and destroy your career.

So all in all, keep in mind that if amateurs like us can spot what's wrong with it, the professionals wold have spotted them long before. Let's give them the benefit of the doubt. Again, these people are not some farmers doing some backyard jobs.
