Max Hinton's favorite show is "Mythbusters." Especially the explosions. So when the Make-A-Wish foundation came to him and asked what would help him take his mind off his two-year battle with cancer, Max said he wanted to blow up a building!
As luck would have it, there was a building in Huron, Ohio, just waiting for the seven-year-old to take down.
HLN affiliate WJW was there along with 30 to 40 thousand onlookers as Max pushed the buttons that brought down an abandoned grain mill, to help make room for new development.
And there is more explosive news ... Max's last two checkups have been clear of the neuroblastoma he's been fighting. Here's hoping it's gone for good ... just like that building!
