This house was built out of concrete blocks, but it still folded like a cheap suit when touched by the Caterpillar 323 excavator.

I have a bunch more awesome demolition videos coming up soon, so make sure you're subscribed and have post notifications turned on so you don't miss anything.
Thanks so much to everyone who's been following along. I really appreciate it!
I was a Heavy Equipment operator for a Big Demolition company in Dallas Texas! For many years we had to separate the Brick/concrete/and the wood the Landfill wouldn’t take mixed materials!
It’s still like that. Everything has to be separated so it can be taken to the recycling depot.
I love the open floor plan of this home!
But, where are the abandoned tricycles?
What’s replacing this house, Brian?
These machines are incredibly powerful, and they seem almost alive the way they move around.
That was a 50-60 year old block house. With a chrisp roof line. Sure, it would have taken a lot of money, but it would have looked better than the cheaply built crap in the background.
I enjoyed this video.
Yeah, a LOT of money. Those roof boards, for example, were really weathered, old and worn. I agree, though, that the house had a waaay more character than those gerbil boxes in the background. The lumber in those roof joists, though... sigh. Can't get quality wood like that anymore. It's all cheap, fast-growing pine. Unfortunately, it's more cost-efficient these days to erect huge multi-tenant cardboard rodent houses. I weep for the future.
No rebar or grout in any of that block!!!! Great video!
Now wait a minute! That house is in move in condition! look at it, it has free AC and fun holes everywhere!
Lol
“Fun holes” 🤔
Seriously though, I love how all the structural engineers come out of the woodwork in the comment sections of demo videos.
What a great video I enjoy watching your videos I like your videos a lot keep making great videos
The metal scrap yard I take metal to has a big ball of fencing that he uses to sweep the deck so gets all the little stuff people don't throw far enough. They don't have an electro magnet
The way that place crumbled looked like a hard enough sneeze inside could have blown the walls out.
Looks better already
19017 East AppleWay Ave, Spokane Valley, WA 99016
Last sold for $330,000 in 2019. Property is zoned Commercial, probably explaining the high price. The nonstop highway noise is excruciating to listen to.
Do you guys not keep cinderblock separate from the waste? That what we do otherwise the waste disposal fee would be huge. Cinderblock and concrete can get recycled/processed down to gravel. Curious your thoughts?
Beyond repair
Lovely "crunch" video.
I like your Dinosaur where did you get it LOL
'For sale, solid cinder block house, open plan, natural solar lighting, won't last long'.......
Do you recycle any of the material...metal, concrete for example or is it not cost effective?
This house reminds me of the punk house I lived in back in the 80’s, except the punk house was much nicer than this place!
I’m sorry, why does this place even need a front door??? 😂
Looks like zero wall insulation!
Open air home love it
you probably get this a lot but i'm waiting for the unseen homeless family who repurposed the place come out " hey what the fuck you doing".
are these demos usually for redevelopment?
Yes, usually, but as of today, it's still just an empty field.
Great video. Did the cinder block and slab get recycled? Nice on bringing everything into one pile
i'm guessing the house had structural issues? And since you mentioned smell, the sewer/drain system malfunctioned?
otherwise, good demo~
Plot couldn't possibly be worth more with a different structure on it. That would never be sufficient reason...
Seeing those newer-looking apartment/condos in the background, it's possible the owners bought out the property for an expansion.
Likely stinks from squatters urinating, defecating and fornicating. Whoops, I mean unhoused disadvantaged and marginalized pure souled people.
Was there no asbestos in this home?
Did that house have solid concrete floors in it with the ductwork in the concrete floor!
10-4
Cinder block home... horrible R value. So a person studs out the interior walls and insulates. That reduce the foot print while enjoying the cost of two walls.
Where was this house located?
Have a Beer
The entire house would probably fit in one dumpster!
Porque no la remodelaron deadentro porque todo loseafuera estaba bonito la chemines las ventanas las puertas todo estaba bien nomás arreglarla deadentro iel garaje nopiensan las cosas yo laubiera areglado
What are they building in in its place? The house could have been refurbed but it’s still dated.
The renovation to bring it up to code is more than the finished house could be s9ld for.
normal. asni shtepi nuk kam shkatrru. pah shiqu me sy. edhe kam stodiju kah shkatrrohet edhe lete. po. edhe kah naj kafshe mrenda. qen qdo gjeh kam vezhgu me sy 5. 10 minuta vete syte mi kam fillu. shkatrrimin
Decent gust of wind would hav saved you fuel !!
Not much strength in a cinder block constructed house !
Re; The interiors. Some people have NO taste, or concern.
Oh no ya broke your thumb. How did that happen.
what state r u in ky wants to know like your videos
House location is Spokane, Wash.
@@thardyryll thanks i dint no u were that far.enjoy your videos
man that looks like fun!!!!! would live to have a machine and just do demo for $$$.
Well at least you dont care about your bucket being abused like some...
👌🎞🚧⛏️👍
Dfv
Boo 😵
operator jerky on the controls not very smooth
It's his first day....
You should show how to do it on your channel
Former meth lab?
Nope. Just zoned commercial, so the land is worth much more than the house on it.
Bad smell -- house used for a criminal purpose or the former home of an animal hoarder?
1/2 way through video.. YOU DON'T KNOW HOW TO USE THE THUMB?.???😮😢
Demolish a perfectly good house that could be renovated and given to a homeless family. Only humanity could be so cruel doing something this heartless
So, the house would have to be purchased from its owner, and then renovated at a cost greater than building new? Brilliant.
Boring
