I was on YouTube and went down the YouTube rabbit hole. Ended up watching a [compilation](https://youtu.be/WDY7uD4E8p4) of water towers collapsing. That’s what sparked this question. It’s portrayed well in movies when a giant monster is destroying a city. It seems as if Godzilla is moving in slow motion. Anyone know why this phenomenon occurs?

Also, large objects that are falling are probably further away so they appear to be moving more slowly.
