A new one-hour TV series called "The Blasters" will premier in the US this Wednesday night, February 8th, at 8:00 pm (est) on the Discovery Channel. The program represents the first continuous "series" on structural blasting produced for network television.

The program profiles several of the world's most skilled blasting contractors as they implode buildings around the globe. Segments for the series were shot in Athens, Amman, Dublin and London, as well as domestic blasts in North Carolina, Ohio and North Dakota.

The Blasters is unlike other documentary efforts in that it follows several companies simultaneously, and represents a true portrait of what blasters encounter when imploding large urban structures. Unforeseen challenges such as security delays, technical obstacles, and even the occasional structure that doesn't fall down, are shown with accompanying insight provided by respective contractors. (The segment featuring Twikenham Stadium in London is particularly compelling, as blasters were in the midst of loading explosives when terrorist bombs were detonated just three miles away in the downtown district last July.)

Boy, wouldn't that be embarrassing. All those explosions and "squibs" and the World Trade Center ends up standing anyway.
