This is an interesting video illustrating how a standard steel construction building might collapse if half of the ground floor gets taken out. Not so long ago this would have been the province of supercomputers. Exactly how accurate this is, I don’t know.

Now, if you think this is an odd choice of video for the day… you should see the dismally depressing video I was considering linking to. But “ha ha this is sad,” only works just so well for just so long. So a building collapse is a nice cheery compromise.
