Quoting: Anonymous Coward 986795Stop thinking its bad for you. Seriously that is a good question, the camera was not shaking during the filming it is possible it was a CCTV, or just a security camera at a gas station or something. If neither of those are the case then, damn. |

I too wonder who or what was filming-- do traffic cams zoom in on people??? T For Texas, T For Tennessee! The virtue of courage is a prerequisite for the practice of all other virtues, because otherwise one is virtuous only when virtue has no cost. There are times when something needs to be done, and yet we know that if we step up and do this needful thing, we will pay a heavy personal price. -C.S. Lewis |

I too wonder who or what was filming-- do traffic cams zoom in on people??? Quoting: snarkBased on the pixelation of the zooms, I think this is fixed-position security cam footage where someone has zoomed in and then pans around within the video. The 3-4 second delay between the debris being thrown and the actual explosion would seem consistent with a primary meteor impact triggering a secondary gas line rupture. |

Except that the explosion takes place off screen, so you can't be sure that there is any delay between the two. Sure I can. You can count the delay between when the debris first appears in frame and when the flame first appears in frame. The shock wave from an explosion will travel in front of the fire, true. But not 3-4 seconds in front of it, when you're that close to the source. At the beginning of the video, the dust actually has time to settle a little before the actual explosion. That's more consistent with two events. One with a large amount of kinetic energy that disturbs the scene, rupturing the gas line as a byproduct, and a second event when the ruptured line ignites. |

Yup, if you look at the left side of the screen you will see a flash of light cross the screen just before the debris flies into the air. Starts at about the seven second mark. |

Good eye, I would have missed that. Makes me think differently now that there is this footage. |

Copernica User ID: 988128 United States 09/14/2010 12:01 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | mother ruuning with baby---eyes water Quoting: neptune2012me too.. so horrifying to imagine being there I thought it was just me.... Wonder what it is about that image...the reaction was instant. Nice find OP! Anyone know where that came from and why they had a camera there? I was impressed to see so many people running - I think they were going to help...the lookie lou's were walking. Also, the police got there within a minute - I'm guessing they were in the neighborhood and saw/heard it? The pressure needed to blow that asphalt - DAMN! I heard a number earlier today but can't remember what it was 2000 or 20000 psi? But they have drastically reduced it - I think they said it was a reduction in all pipes....but may have just been that one. I need to listen closer! God Bless President TRUMP! GOD BLESS AMERICA!! |
