Trojan crumbling

Yeah, I know I’m a little late to the party blogging this, but I thought this was pretty good footage of the Trojan nuclear power plant being destroyed: Trojan implosion on YouTube.

There’s not much more to be said on Trojan (check out some of the latest news); I never knew much about the plant, but I remember always being impressed, even when little, seeing the looming tower rise out of the forest on the horizon. There’s something jaw-dropping, fleeting, and a little creepy seeing such an icon emerging from the landscape all of a sudden.

  1. Close to home for me – it’s really a landmark for my family. We would know we were just about at the rendezvous point for my mom and dad to switch custody us kids for the week when we saw that tower, odd that it’s gone….

  2. having grown up in this area it will be missed by me having moved 1,500 miles away I had someone send me a copy my cuz said he couldnt see it across from the site in wa.it is sad to see it gone

  3. I cant belive its gone. I moved to washington from bakersfield cal. and the trojan was the coolest thing i have ever seen and i will always reamber the first time i ever saw it. and I will never forget the last time i saw it as it came falling to the ground…..
