300 year old barn and vineyard marmalised in a senseless act of random destruction.

Rolling Stones.... and here I was thinking Mick and his crew were having a good old podium crash party...

That was my first thought too.

It was your first thought (and mine) because he intentionally meant it that way. Capitalizing the second word ("Stones") is only done with proper names, so it was done on purpose to fool us.

Mick and the lads are too old to be raisin hell anywhere.

I was disappointed with the video. It only showed the aftermath, not the actual event.

Still, it just goes to show that BFRs are dangerous.

Allow me! EXFOLIATION! ie: 'spalling' of the granite rock face' and I've eaten at the Ahwanee Lodge! Drop in ...any time!

The video's a little long, but covers the subject thoroughly!

Those BFRs didn't hit any targets of value. Just some trees and other detritus.

Now, witnessing Mt St Helens pop its top would be kewl. Except for the ensuing pyroclastic cloud.
