Months-long construction and 17 second destruction of the 1,975 foot Senior Road TV and FM tower near Houston in 1982. NOTE: seven people lost their lives during this accident. May not be suitable for some viewers. SEQUENCE: Huge tower base is raised. Tower is completed and put into operation with temporary antennas. Top-mount panel antenna arrives and is raised in two sections. Camera rides first section. Second section is midway up when two lifting U-bolts break, dropping the antenna and workers onto guy wires below. Camera captures one of the guys being severed, which dooms the tower. Camera falls to ground and records reflections in a pool of water of the remaining guy wires falling, just before the main body of the tower strikes the ground at 17 seconds, causing the video break-up. The bit of audio is the camerman's reaction to the event beginning. Segment is repeated in slow motion, also showing a section of a four inch guy cable nearly decapitating the camerman, who drops the camera. When he retrieves it and resumes, the huge tower base is show on the ground Surviving crewmembers rush in to search for victims. The crushed KTXH building, which was in operation, is shown. Rescuers arrive. The debris field is shown.

Senior Road Tower is a 600 m high guyed radio mast for FM and TV broadcasting at Missouri City, Texas, USA, at 29°34′35″N 95°30′37″W. Senior Road Tower was built in 1983 as a replacement for a tower which collapsed in 1982.

The original tower was near the end of construction when the broadcast antenna was being lifted into place. A small U-bolt failed, causing the antenna to fall and snap the tension wires holding the tower upright. Three workers riding the antenna to the top of the tower and two standing on the tower itself were killed. The entire structure collapsed in less than 17 seconds.

When the tower was under construction, the newly launched KTXH-TV used the tower for their local broadcasting. Months after the tower disaster, KTXH borrowed the transmitter located on the Allied Bank Plaza (now Wells Fargo Tower) in downtown Houston.

Heights:
Elevation of Site Above Mean Sea Level: 24.1 m (en efecto, nada de cerros)
Overall Height Above Ground (AGL): 600.5 m
Overall Height Above Mean Sea Level: 624.6 m
Overall Height Above Ground w/o Appurtenances: 569.8 m

les agrego otra, no tan espectacular

demolición de la Omega Tower, la torre de radio más alta del mundo, de 366 metros de altura.

Situada en Trelew, en Argentina, fue construida en los años 70s por la Marina de los Estados Unidos formando parte de un sistema de comunicación llamado OMEGA Navigation System, de radio a nivel global. Con la idea de así poder localizar exactamente la posición de sus barcos y aviones en cualquier lugar del mundo, junto con otras antenas situadas en otros puntos como Noruega, Australia o Japón, es decir una especie de GPS muy rudimentario.

La demolición fue llevaba a cabo por la empresa Controlled Demolition Inc el 23 de junio de 1998. Y como si de una serpiente se tratase, se fue doblando y plegando sobre sí misma de una manera espectacular. Sin duda es admirable el trabajo que se realiza en este tipo de demoliciones controladas y el estudio que se debe de realizar para que todo salga de la manera prevista.
