This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

No one is at least curious how this was executed??

I'm guessing some bolt cutters or gas/electric powered chop saw and a flatbed.

Either it was a really large team or they had a big window of time...right??

I'm guessing it was a tower like this one.

Balanced on a single anchor point foundation with guy-wires stabilizing it from all sides.
