Safe as houses, providing you've got split second reflexes and can run 30m in about two seconds flat...

 

I think the Dibnah approach would be better though... Or as my father told me when he worked on slum clearances in the 60s - put a big chain round the base of it, hitch up to the back of a 'dozer and pull it down. They used to do it with terraced houses; in through the front door, out the back door and vice-versa in the property next door. Chain up to the bulldozer and cue - a big pile of bricks!
