The Implosion Of The Frontier Hotel & Casino

She invited anyone who was up for it (2:30am) to her room to watch the spectacle, and there were six of us, including Kevin Joiner from Crye-Leike. Here is some video I shot. The actual implosion created no light for the camera to pick up, but the explosion was powerful.
