Crews have cleared most of the wreckage after a water tower collapsed in Town Creek, Alabama.

Workers were taking the water tower down because it had not been used in 20 years. But the demolition didn't go exactly as planned. Instead of the tower falling one way, it fell in the opposite direction, knocking down power lines and causing quite a scare.

No one was hurt in that incident.

Did you see the video? The whole thing was caught on a police cars dash cam. It was something.
