While it takes a lot of time and effort to construct a building, a video posted by People’s Daily China shows how easy and quick it is to demolish one. The incredible moment was caught on camera where one can see the decade-old exhibition centre in south-west China being reduced to rubble in a short span of 10 seconds. Yes, you read that right. According to Daily Mail, the area around the building was sealed and the local police evacuated the residents during the explosion.

Dynamites were set by workers to blow up the 15-storey building set in a 2.5 million-square-foot area and it took no time for it to vanish into a huge ball of smoke. Captioned, “Watch as Chinese workers in the city of Chengdu demolish a high-rise building in the blink of an eye,” the video has garnered much attention on social media and people seem to be amazed after watching it.
