This is why you should not live near a propane facility. Check out the explosion when the tanker blows, the fireball takes up almost the entire city block. :eek:

At the end of the video, you'll see an explosion that looks like a small nuclear bomb that goes off in the middle of the city. It makes me wonder how many people are now deaf [or dead] as a result of this....

    Here the welding supply fire in Dallas last year. About half way in you can
    see the tanks shooting up in the air and landing. There was one local reporter
    that had on land close to him while he was giving a live report.
    The other videos have way too many add ons to go through.

    That's what we responders call a BLEVE. One of the worst kinds of non-military explosions. (BLEVE=boiling liquid expanding vapor explosion)
