Construction usually only means traffic, and traffic is the bane of all human existence. But add in some good camera work, and it begins to look like a mesmerizing dance of human innovation and engineering.

The O7 bridge in Londerzeel, Belgium, was torn down and replaced in only four days, according to a translation of the Youtube video description, which is absolutely incredible by American standards. Sure, the O7 might not be the prettiest bridge in the world, but its destruction and rebuild looks great.
