'On January 15, 2019, New Yorkers witnessed a historic moment as a controlled explosion took down the Eastern Span of the old Tappan Zee Bridge, resulting in the remains falling into the Hudson River. <br /><br />"This bridge will now be replaced with a 3.1-mile, twin-span bridge across the Hudson River and between Rockland & Westchester Counties," the filmer, Idalio Yan commented. "The bridge was brought down via controlled demolition."<br /><br />He further added: "The reason why explosive charges had to be employed in this case was that the said span was too unstable to be dismantled."<br /><br />The filmer also revealed that the said demolition had to be postponed by a few days due to heavy winds.<br /><br /><br />Name: Idalio Yan<br />Location: New York<br />'<br />WooGlobe Ref : WGA403851<br />For licensing and to use this video, please email licensing@wooglobe.com
