0:43Now PlayingThe residents of Washington, Missouri are preparing for a loud boom Thursday morning.
An old Highway 47 Bridge will come tumbling down after hundreds of explosives are set off.
The bridge opened in 1936. It will be about 83 years old when it falls into the Missouri River.
Photographer Mark Hertich plans to be in place to watch Thursday morning.
“It’s just a cool thing to do,” he said. “Good pictures, you know.”
Fellow photographer Bob Barton is also looking forward to the demolition. He’s seen other bridges come down over the years.
“Seeing a bridge getting blown up is really cool, I mean, it’s so loud,” he said. “The first thing you notice is all the pigeons flying and then you see them take off flying before you hear the sound of the explosion.”
