So far so good: The building in Liuzhou, southern China, seconds before the planned demolition
Everyone likes to see a good video of a large building being completely reduced to rubble.
This video goes one better.
The footage, taken on December 30, shows a 22-floor residential building being demolished in the city of Liuzhou in southern China.
Scroll down for video
We're still ok: The initial blast successfully breaks the building into two parts
Er... that's not looking so great: Half of the building tumbles sideways in a cloud of dust
Best laid plans: The other half of the building remains standing - but leaning precariously to the side
But disaster is narrowly averted when the demolition goes wrong.
Instead of crumbling into a contained heap of rubble, half of the building crashes sideways to the ground, narrowly averting disaster.
Even more alarmingly, the other half is left still standing - but leaning precariously to the side
Not quite as planned: Another view catches the moment half the building goes down while the other half remains leaning
Shoppers in Liuzhou carry on, unperturbed by the dangerously leaning building
