Shixian Road is the widest and most beautifully landscaped road in Chiayi. Lying at the Zhuyuan intersection on Shixian Road stands Jianan skyscraper, which has been derelict for the last twenty years. With demolition of this landmark ten-story building commencing over the last few days, citizen journalists seized the opportunity to capture some rare footage of the bold Taiwanese workers on the job as they removed this ugly tumor from Chiayi’s landscape.
In addition to the danger from corroded steel reinforcement beams in this long-abandoned building, technical staff also faced dangers from the weather, wind direction and wind force. As workers stood ten floors up on this exposed old building firing up their oxy burners to begin the cutting job, passing motorists showed visible concern for them undertaking such a perilous job. But only by enlisting the help of such a daring group of workers can essential infrastructure improvements be carried out in Taiwan.

乙炔最後的火苗 影音
嘉義市世賢路，是嘉義市最寬敞也是景觀最美的道路，但在世賢路、竹圍路口，卻有一棟荒廢20年的「嘉南摩天大樓」，這一棟10層樓的地標，近日進行拆除作業，公民記者捕捉到基層勞工「藝高人膽大」的難得畫面，也拍攝到嘉義市景觀毒瘤剷除的鏡頭。
這一棟大樓由於荒廢已久，鋼骨樑柱已經鏽蝕，技術人員在進行拆除作業的同時，也存在更多的危險因子。工人在高達10層樓的裸露舊建築中，以乙炔進行切割作業，在天候、風向、風力的層層威脅下，一層一層完成工作，讓過往人車都為他們捏一把冷汗，也因為有這一群勞工的付出，台灣才能漸進完成重大的基礎建設。
