Huge Retaining Wall Collapses Burying an Excavator
Istanbul, Turkey. Video shows a huge retaining wall failing spectacularly after a metal piece broke off before the entire wall finally comes down. Authorities say the collapse was a result of heavy rains in the area and lousy engineering.

I like the slow but steady escalation of things falling down the pit, until the whole thing comes down crashing.

I've seen rock bolts break before but never in a series like that, that was amazing.

Great stuff! There's that eerie failing metal sound again. Bet those rock bolts traveled like rifle bullets.
