Destruction, Demolition and Deconstruction
The Lone Groover says "I've just taken down a pergola with a metre-deep Russian vine over the top. It had nine birds' nests in it, and had rotted all of the cross timbers. It covered the entire lawn and needs a skip of its own." What's the biggest/worst thing you've ever taken down? Tell us your tales of demolition and wanton destruction.

Terrible fire
One day, back in the day, I was walking home from class at the University of Arizona when I came across a building destroyed by fire. I was appalled. There were still visible flames in the ruins.
Still, I had a niggling suspicion that something was wrong. I walked that route all the time, but somehow couldn't remember what that structure had been. There was a void in my memory.
No surprise, really. The area was a parking lot and the smoking ruin was a set for the movie Revenge of the Nerds.
