mayanh8 Posted August 4, 2020 Author Share Posted August 4, 2020 I am no expert so I'm not going to speculate but that explosion is effing massive. How much fireworks ordinance is needed to produce something like that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dawkins 20 Posted August 4, 2020 Share Posted August 4, 2020 Some of the videos that have come out are absolutely insane. That whole port area was vaporized. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blazehound Posted August 4, 2020 Share Posted August 4, 2020 Looks like a Fing small nuclear bomb. Those buildings were vaporized. I know firework factory explosions are terrible, but this looked like something on another level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
