Nick's Story
My 15 minutes of fame:
In 2004 I was fortunate enough to blow up a building and set a Guiness World Record at the same time!
I was the Project Manager in charge of the demolition and implosion of Veteran's Stadium and was featured in an hour-long Documentary on the History Channel. I have it on DVD if you would like to buy a copy (just kidding).

Who knew my experience with explosives all those years ago would finally pay off!!!
