That's not very typical, I'd like to make that point.

It's ok, it's out of the environment.

[–] UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world 6 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

That's why you don't build a million of them.

[–] anomnom@sh.itjust.works 5 points 2 weeks ago

So that was China’s mistake…

[–] wonderingwanderer@sopuli.xyz 5 points 2 weeks ago

Well there's yer problem!

[–] WhyIHateTheInternet@lemmy.world 24 points 2 weeks ago

They got pills for that these days

[–] JasonDJ@lemmy.zip 65 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

This is intentional they build them on the ground then pull them up. Much less crane fees

[–] Mediocre_Bard_Redeux@lemmy.world 25 points 2 weeks ago

Much like the Amish.

That thing is in shockingly good shape

[–] AgentSeven@lemmy.zip 48 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago) (2 children)

I know, right? They must have built it really solidly. Except for the whole falling down bit.

[–] rumba@lemmy.zip 15 points 2 weeks ago (4 children)

seems like they should have driven in some pylons before the foundation, of course, the REAL worry now is what about all those other ones?

[–] DudeImMacGyver@kbin.earth 14 points 2 weeks ago (3 children)

You must build additional pylons.

[–] rumba@lemmy.zip 9 points 2 weeks ago

That's how it got knocked over, they built pylons, the damned Protoss moved in

I mean since it's a small percentage of ones that fall down. And this one's already falling down and taking up that percentage. I wouldn't even worry about the other ones.

[–] rumba@lemmy.zip 6 points 2 weeks ago

I am absolutely certain that's what the paperwork says :)

Maybe they build them laying flat like that and then get a bunch of Amish guy to raise it with poles?

[–] rmuk@feddit.uk 24 points 2 weeks ago

I know they have a reputation as manual labourers but I feel like you're being unfair to the Poles.

Scale is right, too. Just need to fix the rotation.

What did that mean for the remaining instances of the same building? I imagine they were all built to the same high quality China is known for.

[–] DeadDigger@lemmy.zip 17 points 2 weeks ago

I mean given that the building still looks fine and did not just smash to rubble boy is that constructed well

[–] FauxPseudo@lemmy.world 20 points 2 weeks ago

The Amish will be there shortly to raise it.

[–] Buddahriffic@lemmy.world 17 points 2 weeks ago

Not the kind of housing market crash the people were hoping for.

[–] scytale@piefed.zip 16 points 2 weeks ago

It’s like they purposely spaces the buildings apart in such a way that they avoid a domino effect if one falls down like that.

[–] Diplomjodler3@lemmy.world 15 points 2 weeks ago

Foundation game on point.

[–] expatriado@lemmy.world 11 points 2 weeks ago

something is fundamentally wrong here

[–] Lucidlethargy@sh.itjust.works 10 points 2 weeks ago (3 children)

China, I assume? They're quite famous for this shit.

[–] FUCKING_CUNO@lemmy.dbzer0.com 8 points 2 weeks ago

Looks like a fancy mixing board in a recording studio

[–] tigermountain@lemmy.world 8 points 2 weeks ago

It's rare to get a photo of a building sleeping.

[–] numbermess@fedia.io 8 points 2 weeks ago

[–] mrfriki@lemmy.world 7 points 2 weeks ago

Rest in piece.
