I'm pretty sure I saw some commentary on this very thing on one of the documentaries about Fred Dibnah that I watched on youtube not long ago. The bound the base of a chimney with thick (2" maybe) steel/wire rope to keep it together so that it fell as they intended.

Clearly it didn't make it as far as Denmark!  ;D

Yep, that was a chimney whose base was about 3 feet from the building they wanted to keep!

Fred didn't damage a single brick. ;D
