Enthusiasts from France build giant buildings from wooden construction sets, and then destroy them in a rather epic way. Some structures from thousands of pieces take days of painstaking work to create.
A group of French people have come up with an unusual pastime — they spend many hours constructing grandiose structures from thousands of wooden blocks, only to watch them fall in spectacular fashion.
Each project requires incredible precision and patience — the team assembles miniature parts into large-scale structures day after day, and the slightest mistake can lead to premature collapse.
The crowning achievement of the French creativity was an incredible tower 27 meters high - a real skyscraper made of wooden construction sets, which brought the creators the title of world record holders. The most exciting thing in this unusual hobby is the moment when the majestic structure turns into a cascade of falling blocks.
For these architects-destroyers, the process of destruction is no less important than the process of creation.
