This is how they eliminate road hazards in Norway. One: Get a huge helicopter. Two: Attach large metal ball with a cable. Three: Smash it against cliff. Four: Repeat a few times and watch how giant rocks smash down.
It happened in Oppdølstranda on Nordmøre, Norway. I like their description:
A helicopter smacks down a rock off a cliff face to eliminate a rock fall hazard for the road below. The helicopter then displays its dominance of the Fjord by urinating all over the rock face. This is done to loosen and remove any remaining small rocks that may fail at another time and cream a volvo or saab on the road below.
I couldn't have said it better. My dog Amos does the same, and he doesn't even have balls, metallic or otherwise. Don't mess with those norskies. Or my dog.
