@BBCNews @teessidelocaltv The Demolition of The Blast Furnace at British Steel 9am Wednesday the 23 November 2022 #rip #bbc #bbcnews #skynews #itv #itvnews #teesside #blastfurnace #redcar
Sad to watch. Ex heavy End worker Llanwern, S. Wales. Flattened our 2 BF's back in 2000, Port Talbot next and Scunthorpe soon to follow suit. Our country is finished😥
My old dad drove the ladle crane in the melting shop for thirty years at shotton steel works . I worked there for six months when I left school . I would sit in the cab with him . . The place was awesome . Totally mind blowing !. Nothing has ever impressed me more since then
Very sad to see this. 16 years in Ravenscraig Steelworks. We have been betrayed by successive governments. Love , health and respect from Scotland UK.

I still miss the big chimney at Port Kembla.
No more British Steel.
Ever.
Apparently it’s coming back and coming back to Teesside but I won’t hold my breath
If it was my demo I’d be annoyed the last stack stayed almost upright
@@gregorypeck876 yeah I noticed that to
Industrial suicide. Right there.
It’s been dead for a while it was never going to be fired up again ether blow it up or turn it into a Museum
@@The_Lonsdales There used to be a lot more indrustry unfortunately :(
"Industrial suicide" it hears like a name of Godflesh's song😂
it didnt go to plan...the chimney failed to go!
Yeah I saw that to I figured they will just hit it with something lol
@@The_Lonsdales yeah ben houchmans head hhhh
@@ashleighwatson8635 That'd be enough to kill anyone in sight.
why why why why
😭😭😭
I think it's a shame!! They could give me the work!!
it is going to take forever to remove the "hearth"
It’s going to take forever for all the asbestos to disappear!
It’s alright the wind took it over to Hartlepool so 👍 there sitting on a nuclear power plant anyway so what’s a bit of asbestos 😆
I was thinking that myself, the residual iron wasn’t tapped off when it shut down in 2015, that lump of iron must be a fair size
It would have to go if a new facility were to be built.
