On May 28, is celebrated an official Russian holiday: the Day of the Border Guards.

Both former border guards and active service celebrate it across the country. In Moscow, it is often celebrated in Gorky Park.

In May, the usually quite high temperatures in Russia allow border guards to swim in ponds and fountains. It is also normal for brawls to appear during the celebration as much vodka is involved.

It took over one thousand pounds of explosive to put this 450 feet tall and 345 wide monster down.

The demolition was considered potentially dangerous so people or the media weren’t allowed to approach the scene.

It took place on May 24 in South Carolina at the Savannah River Site.

The photographs are beautiful and well done, as to my taste.

I’d even say that some of them remind sets from Tim Burton’s movies...
