A shocking video reveals a Glasgow building collapsing while a worker narrowly escapes the falling debris, leaving onlookers in disbelief.
Glasgow: A wild scene unfolded when a four-storey building came crashing down. Eyewitnesses were left stunned as they watched the chaos unfold.
The video shows a worker standing near the building on Hydepark Street. Suddenly, a loud crack echoed, and the structure began to fall apart.
The worker stumbled back, clearly shocked, and then bolted as debris flew toward him. People nearby gasped as dust and rubble filled the air.
It turns out the building was in the process of being demolished when it unexpectedly collapsed. One witness shared a gripping story about a worker who jumped from the first floor just before the disaster struck.
He leaped about 15 to 20 feet down, narrowly escaping the falling bricks. Thankfully, he was okay, though he seemed more worried about his parked BMW.
Before the collapse, there was a loud creaking noise, followed by a massive thud that shook the ground. The dust cloud covered everyone, leaving them coated in debris.
While the building was scheduled for demolition, this wasn’t how it was supposed to go down. Fortunately, only one person suffered a minor injury, and a van was crushed in the process.
The cause of the collapse is still a mystery, and Hydepark Street has been closed off for safety. Fire crews are on the scene, ensuring everything is secure.
