Water tower.
There goes the water tanker
Oh, for those curious I just picked some favorite from here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WDY7uD4E8p4
Some do have a slightly satisfying metallic noise, but mostly just "DONK" "SPLAT" "FWOOM" or a variety of other flat noises. Enjoy :D

They look like toddlers flopping over for a nap

All of them are so anticlimatic! I love it

Uh no. These are cut scenes from War of the Worlds. Don't lie.

Like old drunks falling on their faces!

Missing arms and googly eyes.

Would be so cool to build a apatment in a old water tower!

Check out "The House in the Clouds", in Thorpeness, Suffolk.

I wish they were full of water when they fell
ActuallyMyNamesMarina
Suddenly my childhood fear of a water tower bursting and flooding the whole world seems even more silly than it already did.

Water huge disappointment
drizztx
As an amazement, this was disappointing, but as a disappointment, this was amazing.
Jefie
I know exactly what you mean.
seige
(1) how does one think of this (2) how does one find this. Pls advise, need to know how I'm inter-webbing wrong.
SomethingSomethingTraLaLa
Just looked up a video of water towers falling over then gifed my favorite ones.
Kvothefefe
You were right, OP.
Renfley
Someone needs to add eyes and arms to each of these!
kellaroo
I am whelmed.
Turkishtime04
I too could not be more or less whelmed by this post.
kellaroo
Much whelmed. Awesome. Wow.

Now let's see them filled with water

I hear a soft thud. Like "dn"

Something about each of them makes me a little sad. Like giants felled, their dignity stripped.
Traja01
You should play Shadow of the Colossus.
DestroyUsAll
Dude, during all of these, all I could imagine was the music they play when a Colossus dies
sakm
I did, during my formative years.

The best years. I hear they're about to re-release it for ps4.

British person. Why so many water towers in US, too much distance between reservoirs?
pizzakitten
I too would like to know this.
crann
a LOT of flat land in the US, water towers make it easy to maintain water pressure.
Bethem909
It's usually more about maintaining pressure in the system than storing large volumes of water.
SomethingSomethingTraLaLa
That's one point. Lots of small towns have their own towers. The last base lived at had at least 4-5 from my count.

I was thinking the exact same thing. Just about to type something very similar and your comment caught my eye.

Ahh *just* posted a quote! Beat me to it- was excited my username was somewhat relevant haha
Halvinator
Was exactly going through my mind as each mammoth water tower slowly, so slowly, fell. Good ol' oxygen.
IllychTortorovald
I kid you not. I was legitmatly afraid of watertowers because of War of the Worlds(1953)...
skipweasel
I can quite believe it. I was terrified of the 60s Doctor Who theme. Loved the monsters, just the music was more than I could stand.
IllychTortorovald
That spooky theremin theme
skipweasel
None of the original theme was done on a theremin.
HylianFox
the spindly ones are pretty freaky-looking

Do I go with the star wars reference or the hhgttg reference? Aaaagh. *Does neither. Fails spectacularly*
IReviewDickPics
Considering this is a War of the Worlds musical album reference: neither.
AmSpecialSnowflake
I like stringing them together though. Apologies

Now show me some falling that are still full of water!

One was rigged for demo here and filled with water for the first time in years. Overnight it collapsed without neighbours hearing a thing.

Much disappoint here too

That doesn’t happen much. They are designed and more stable with water in them than without.

They are designed!

Damn this is a beautiful string.

Nah, man - cesium. And a lot of it. Alternatively, a large quantity of azidoazide azide.
TheCanadianTrucker
chlorine?
vidiv
addendum: http://blogs.sciencemag.org/pipeline/archives/2013/01/09/things_i_wont_work_with_azidoazide_azides_more_or_less
vidiv
Nah, not explosive enough - cesium makes sodium look like a fart in a barn. Azidoazide azide is a compound of extreme volatility.
TheScotchKraut
Saying Azidoazide azide is extremely volatile is like saying that the Tsar Bomba was a bit loud.
foxmichaels
Having grown up in a farm, I know that farts in barns are dangerous. That much methane.. bad.
