Our strategy for Mine and Dine level 16-2 is to lob the first Black bird between the first and second towers. The explosion should demolish both of them. Lob the next Black bird through the wooden plank holding the circular saw blade. Detonate the bird at the bottom of the trough to trigger the TNT and level the third tower. If the right tower remains, fire the last Black bird head-on into it. The score in the video below is 141,030.
Version 2022:
147200
Aim the first bomb between the second and third structure. This destroys almost everything except for the last structure far right. Second bird gets all of the last structure.
I am sure a higher score can be had.
Thanks for the help! Worked perfectly!
142050 as suggested above aim the first bomb bird at the flat stone between the first first and second structure next bomb bird takes out the rest thank you gamer kyp
Wow this comment was a long time ago..and not to mention incorrect..i meant ty between second and third as @gamerkyp states above ty:) i actually had to use all the birds for 149k but with time i will try i perfect my shooting lol..
154100
One bird only. Dropped it between the second and third tower. Second tower fell to the left, the round concrete ball flew into the last tower. Everything came tumbling down.
Lowest scores I’m getting with this method is 137k+ using two birds. Usually, its around 147k+.
159 k with this method at first shot (by mistake, trying to replicate video). 139k+ 2 birds left. Hard to replicate, but if you’re not going for a high score worth some tries.
I reset this level and walked away from my phone. When I came back the entire right side was gone. If I had placed my first bird correctly, I think it would’ve got me close to 160k or more.
There’s a glitch in this level. It takes a while (up to 5 minutes), but then the rotating wheel will wear down the structure on the far left and destroy that tower – 52.000 points+ without a single bird :)
That takes a lot of patience, but it’s a good trick. Good find.
Out of curiosity, how did you happen by this? Did you walk away from your device for a few minutes and come back to find destruction?
It’s very subtle at first, but you’ll see the horizontal cement planks under the lower pig start to separate, the boulder on top moving ever so slightly back and forth. After about 5 minutes, the weight of the boulder causes the structure to split and fall left and right. If the pebbles set off the tnt below, it’s possible to get over 50K!
I saw the spinning wheel self destruct myself today – gave me 148K, but didn’t give me a high score. Cool to see it.
I have a couple of screen captures of the self collapse uploaded to my album. So far this is acting like a fourth bird by taking out the far right side of the level, leaving the remaining two towers for the three bomb birds. If done correctly, it allows for greater debris destruction.
I was considering where to place the first bird when I noticed the piglet on the left wobbling and then started to pay attention. (and of course, in my post above I meant far right, not left x-) )
However, I have never managed to get a higher score than with the usual method.
155350 with 2 birds
158580 :)
Destruction is more important than remaining birds, I got 151k without any birds left, if you think the amount of debris left holds more than 10k, launch your birds.
If you aim to get highscores of 150k+ your first bird should explode the 3 tnts and take down the left structure. Your score should be around 105k+. If not simply aim at the debris on the left to get to around 115k+ if necessary. Then aim the third bird to the right structure.
To increase your chances of getting the first shot right aim the first bird to the horizontal concrete block between the second and third structures and manually explode the bomb bird just above the horizontal block (don’t let the horizontal block break because the bomb gets too low).
Very similar to video only slight alteration of positioning and detonation. First bird between first and second tower, slightly closer to the first. Detonate when the bird is just above the square block – both towers completely destroyed with little debris. Second bird closer to last tower. Detonate higher, after breaking wooden plank holding saw, detonate when touching stone plank. Last three structures destroyed, 155K + 10K remaining bird = 165,000.
Just what you said – took about 5 minutes of trying to get my score. Thanks!
thanks for the strat @abeggertoo.
1st bird difficult to place, but once you get good destruction, the 2nd bird is easy and clears the rest. one extra bird = 10k
Thanks @abeggertoo. I got tired of waiting for the last tower to self-destruct and just went with your strat. Gained 10K and the top score (for now).
was playing the same 2nd as described by @beggertoo but a slightly different 1st, albeit with the same intended effect, as follows: high arc to the top-left corner of the long horizontal stone slab in the middle of the 2nd structure from the left, such that the bird bounces back a bit and falls down, detonating it manually when it’s to the right of the hollow square block and to the left of the thick horizontal stone. was playing for 70k+ destruction after the first. have had up to 79k then, but for my current best final score, i got only j72k after the 1st. on the other hand, in that case the 2nd got an excellent 161k destruction:

yielding a final score of 171040:
http://angrybir.de/17yvoJv
after trying the original strategy mentioned for some time, i had only recently switched to the alternative 1st before getting this score. that, combined with having had better scores than 72k after the 1st, and there still being quite some debris visible in the screenshot, make me think that higher scores are possible. another reason for that is that i think that even with 3 birds 167k scores are possible, if you manage to get almost total destruction. (had come close to it several times, just for some stubborn jewel, by playing the above strategy even if the leftmost tower didn’t collapse after the 1st and then sending the 3rd into the 1st floor (in european numbering) of that tower, breaking through its floor.)
163970/2
many thx to @vuelva for great description and to @abeggertoo for inspiration

I find it easiest to fire the first bomb into the bottom of the first tower, detonate it. You will need the second tower to crumble as well and take those pigs out residing within.
Second bomb send on a higher arc so that it touches it two wooden triangles from the third tower. Let it detonate naturally and you should get around 136k+, plus the extra bird for my total of 146,260.
It was just a march from left to right.
1. Black bird into the bottom of the left structure.
2. Black bird into the bottom left of the second structure from left side.
3. Black bird hit the wood plank holding the saw and activate right below it which knocks the third structure to the left and the fouth structure to the right.
All tnt was activated. Gained 2k in points.
Sweet!! @wrw01 I had a pretty decent score but I was pretty low on the boards so I tried every single strat up here to see if I could jump it up from the 600s to higher and when I did yours well what do you know! Went waaay up to the 100s!! Haha OB put another on wrw01s tab eh!! ;)
@kimmiecv Hi Kimmiecv, glad to help you. You beat my score which always makes me feel good because what I wrote is validated. Keep fling’n and kill’n the pigs. You are going to have to help me clear the tab in the BP.
Haaha we are both going to get drunk at the rate this is going @wrw01! May want to make sure your not driving anywhere for 2 days after our fun in BP then LOL ;D
@wrw01 here’s more validation of the merits of your strat. Gotta love the destruction you can get with those black birds!
Thanks @hallieginsb for the post and congrats on the great score. I agree with ya, the Bomb Birds are fun to play.
Well let’s have a lesson on ‘ how to mess up a first shot when you’ve got 58k free points already on the board..the rightmost tower collapses almost every time after about 3-4 minutes but the great flinger that i am keeps missing the shot. My post is to verify the self-collapse still works and my question is , if you get the self collapsing third tower where then do you aim ? Any help greatly appreciated..Ohhhh and is it worth it point wise or are you better off just shooting..ty:)
Two birds – first bird between the third and fourth tower, at grinding wheel level – detonated the left most tnt, blew off the top of the second tower, which toppled the first tower. Delayed explosion of the 2nd tnt, both crystals gone,, with a score above 120000. Skimmed the debris of the first tower to nestle in lower aspect of 2nd tower, projecting it everywhere and adding 36000+ to score. Last bomber bonus. Debris left, so scores above 170000 possible with luck.
I used a strategy similar to ww01…
1) first bird to bottom of first tower, between crystals and bottom concrete block. Takes out the whole tower. If you don’t get the crystals here,start over.
2) 2nd bird just beneath horizontal concrete bar so bird falls inside tower to the bottom. If done right, this destroys whole tower AND destabilizes third tower.
3) last bird arc high so it breaks horizontal wooden beam holding saw. Manually detonate just after breaking wood and just about everything else is taken out.
I have repeated this about 5 times with scored between 151,000 and 160,000+. I’m fairly sure scores can get higher.
That glitch worked!!! i did without a single bird
With 2 birds.
The first bird just brushing the stone plank of the second tower and then falling. Manual detonation around the horizontal stone block.
Up to 78k is possible is possible after the first bird but a high score doesn’t need that much. Indeed, the important part is to leave as few debris as possible on the left side of the level. The second bird won’t help you clear them later.
I got around 72k after the first shot for my best score.
Then the second bird is launched at the sticking wood plank very near the rightmost structure. Again, manual detonation when it comes just below the sticking stone plank and hope for the best.
It is to be noted that the hollow square stone blocks should be taken care of. They carry a lot of points ;-)
Here are the resulting damages for my best score.
And the highscore screenshot.
Hope it helps.
@asher: in what way is this different from (my adaptation of) @beggertoo ‘s strategy posted above?
@vuelva: it is not ;-)
I have just added some screenshots, and since it’s a top score I feel that it must be documented (if only it was always the case…).
Thanks.
@asher documenting is ok of course (but i do not restrict to top scores; i post any insight that may help others) as per item 3 in
https://www.angrybirdsnest.com/forums/topic/what-all-newbies-need-to-know-on-goingopen-draft/
but i adhere to item 7 there as well, usually by implicit reference replying to the relevant comment (in case i have taken inputs from several comments, i reply to the main one; only if that’s not appropriate for some reason i post a new comment).
The first bird gives me better results when slightly deflected by top right of 1st tower, detonating on impact on 2nd tower. Here (screenshot just before 10k bonus…) are the resulting damages for my best score (#1 for now).
I just scored 172,700 points by following the adapted strategy posted by @vuelva back in 2015. I further used the screenshots posted by @asher that same year. Thanks to everyone who has posted help on this level.
I took a screenshot showing the trajectory of the second bomb-bird and the leftover debris before the final score.
The second screenshot is of the Tally screen.
