Video – And these guys built the Pyramids…?

Uncontrolled Egyptian collapse sends locals running for cover.

There any many ways to tell that a demolition project is going awry: excessive dust; debris falling outside the designated exclusion zone; continuous visits from the local health and safety police. But, as signs go, they don’t come much more telling than locals screaming as they run for their lives.

Of course, given all that is transpiring in the Middle East at present, the uncontrolled collapse of a single Egyptian building is possibly not front page news. Then again, perhaps it speaks to the cheapness of life in a region plagued and seemingly cursed by war and conflict.
