River Crest Power Plant

The River Crest Power Plant was comparatively tiny, so this 2011 demolition itself isn’t quite as impressive as the others on this list. What makes this video shine, however, is that it’s super informative! It features an original employee of the plant and the guy who set up the demolition explaining the process. The footage also captures people walking near the fallen tower, showing that even though this coal plant was on the smaller side, the scale of the infrastructure is still huge. Please note that this video is also narrated TV news-style, right down to the inclusion of a reporter, but this is a PR video from Luminant, the Texas company that operated the plant. Sneaky!
