This is a video I shared with my Mom some time ago about an underwater demolition that helped transform San Francisco into a major port. I lived there (or near there) for a good portion of my life and never heard of this story. I think it may be due to how weird everyone is there, since EVERYONE loves talking about Emperor Norton, but nobody mentions this? Really? Even the official Golden Gate bridge history tour includes him, but do you hear about this event that had a much larger affect on the course of San Fran? Nope, it's all about emperor brain damaged hobo over there.
