i watched from just opposite my house, at 3am i saw them begin to collapse, it had rained for just a minute then stopped as the towers collapsed, i cried, i knew the towers from my childhood. i'm now 56,still miss them when i look over at the view.

they all got smoke around them and if you went there and you were inside and there was fire inside and if someone went inside and they were demlitined then you will die.

I was there at the demolition and found it quite upsetting that something that was a big part of Sheffiled was gone in minutes. The demolition was exciting and was loud.

Im not actually from sheffield, im from Milton keynes, but some of my family live in Bradford, so I always see the towers when I go up to see them. It's a real shame they're gone. Shame on You E.ON!

sad day for the towers going.my dad was one of the people to build these towers he has passed on now but i am sure he would have been looking on.

I was stood at the Meadowhall rail station. I was amazed to see the amount of people who showed up to pay their last respects to the landmark. It was a shame to see them go, and I had to laugh when part of the tower still stood proud and did not go without a fight. I had to agree with a fellow onlooker who described it as a 'soldier' Quite correct.

I personally think the demolishion of the tinsley cooling towers was a waste of time and money and should never happened, the tinsley cooling towers should of be 1)as listed buildings 2) be repaired and strengthed 3) used for water cooling for a new on site power station instead of being demolished.

I am a Tinsley resident.I watched it from the Tinsley side. A wonderful view through the gap in the trees.Immediately after the explosions there was so much smoke blowing quickly towards Wincobank that for a time it was impossible to see what had happened. The bulk of the people walked away. A few of us stayed. And as the smoke cleared we could see something. There was an erect spike of tower remaining. I like to think defiantly. There was a laugh. That was when we clapped. Not the expolsion. The one surviving shaft of tower sticking its finger up as if to say, "Up yours, EON."Or maybe that was just me.

I went past them for the last time on Saturday! Did it take long to sweep up the M1 motorway?

asd to see the towers disappear, i now live in windsor and my family live just the other side of the towers in chapeltown, i always knew i was at the end of my journey once they were in sight, the M1 will be a much more boring drive now. those towers were a symbol of sheffield and rotherham and what was achieved here, a shame the french owners have no sense of heritage.
