Looks & sounds like an inverted rocket launch from NASA ...

Symbolic for everything Mr. Trump touches.

Yeah, a failure followed by a collapse really is the overlying pattern of Donald Trump's life & career.

Bravo!

Okay, this is epic.

I'm glad it was officially demolished as opposed to unofficially demolished, lol

People who attach significance and/or cheer over this need to get a life, however

Like everything in trump's life ... it all eventually comes crashing down.

Did they at least get $500 for selling the hotel on Boardwalk back to the bank?

Nope.
trump is going "directly to Jail. Do not pass GO, do not collect" anything.

No, that would be those who instinctively feel the need to defend comments about this obvious analogy to an utterly failed businessman and president.

Except of course for the select few, that of course includes yourself, Trump tends to bring out the antithesis of the better angels of our nature. Please pray for the rest, including those who are going to hell anyway (raises hand on the latter). Thank you.

What's the science behind demolitions anyway? How do they make it collapse in on itself?

Essentially, explosives set at the building's supports up & down the length of its entirety. These explosives aren't set off all at once, but on timers that detonate them in a sequence, & though this varies depending on what the building's made out of, the explosives on the bottom are generally the first to be triggered in order to blow out the lowest supports, forcing the building to drop straight down, followed by detonation of explosives on the next-up floor to keep making sure the building keeps going straight down, & so on & so forth the rest of the way up the building. The overall result is a tightly controlled collapse so that the building doesn't tip over &/or fall in each & every direction but more-or-less just goes straight down.

trump is likely happy to see it go he got out of altantic city just in time he hated what became of that building even sue to get his name off of it.

I will be that guy

Monopoly rules don't actually say going to jail means other than landing on the space marked In Jail and being prevented from advancing your token on your turn. Every other deal is legal, including collecting rent if someone lands on your property while you're still in it.

Your turn ends immediately if you're sent to jail though, so no deals until the next turn. Chilling in jail can be strategic in the late game.

Since we are on the topic ...
Have you guys played Monopoly City?

I think it is the best version of all the Monopoly games out there (I own it).
My nephew loves playing this game when he comes over to visit.
