IN PICS: News of the world Aug 23

The Tinsley cooling towers come crashing to the ground after standing next to the M1 motorway in Sheffield for 70 years in Sheffield, England. The iconic cooling towers have finally been demolished after standing as landmarks for travellers as the gateway to the north. The M1 viaduct was closed as the two 75 meter high structures were destroyed with a controlled explosion at 3am to prevent disruption to traffic. (Getty Images)
