    This document discusses different methods for demolishing concrete structures like walls, including using a sledgehammer, explosives, and a wrecking ball. It explains that cement mixed with water hardens into concrete, which is used to build sidewalks, buildings, and the Berlin Wall. When the Berlin Wall needed to come down to allow free movement of people, wrecking balls, explosives, or sledgehammers could be used to knock down the hard concrete. Control is needed when using a wrecking ball to avoid debris flying off.

    Wrecking Ball

    Hit wall too hard - debris goes flying


    Push wrecking ball just hard enough to
    get wall/building to fall, but not too hard
    where it goes flying
    How do you make a wrecking ball hit
    hard? Not as hard?
