An unprecedented online photo contest highlighting demolition workers was held recently to raise public awareness of their profession in a chronically understaffed industry.

The wrecking ball industry is struggling to find workers because many people have the impression that it is a tough job, so demolition workers rolled up their sleeves to show their mettle and provided the Macho Photo Contest for Demolition Workers with 68 photos.

Many of the men took their shirts off and demonstrated bulging arms, big chests and six pack abs in various poses.
