Fall down go boom!
I just got back from my two hour long lunch (implosion) break. Absolutly amazing.

Air horns blasting the final warning, followed by a staccato of high pitched booms. You could see the puffs of smoke from the first set of charges. Then a second set that sounded like artillery exploding. Little flashes. Then a third and a cloud of dust started to rise from the base of the buildings. The foundation was gone and both buildings just dropped into the ground like some freakish mole had burrowed under them. The one closest to us started to lean at the very end.

Funny thing was, is that the explosives were louder than the actual building collapsing.

I have a little video I'll try to have up later today. Give you a different view than the tv will have.
