Shaky camera phone, apologies.
Trying to enjoy the view so I was not too focused on a steady camera arm

Yeah, that caught me off guard.
I did not know any of that was gonna happen.

For me, it was definitely worth making the trip from Summerlin.

Great video, Darrell.

It looks like there wasn't much of a debris cloud. Nice job by the crew.

Stayed there a few times in the late '80s. It was a dump even back then. But it was an icon, so RIP. Can't wait for baseball there.

Only in Vegas would they set off 100 tons of explosives and an almost equal amount of fireworks for a building implosion.

They do everything big in Vegas.

Those drones were amazing. I guess what happened in Spiderman far from home isn't that far fetched.
