BC Place Roof Collapses


Deflated, originally uploaded by Tim McDonald.

Got home from signing up for a new apartment (details to come) to be greeted by the sight of BC Place with its roof collapsed. Apparently, a tear developed in the fabric (it is an 'inflatable' roof) followed by a loud bang as it collapsed. BC Place officials claim this was intentional 'controlled deflation' after the initial tear was discovered.

For those interested, more info can be found on the CBC (Canada's equivalent of the ABC) website:
