The crater left behind.

190 homes and 159 vehicles damaged. No idea about deaths/injuries.

Construction fucked up an industrial gas line.

Insane this was so close to all those homes—did not expect to see that.

Saw the new yesterday stating there were 150+ people that were admitted to the hospital

no, I've watched plenty of action movies, I'm pretty sure this is just a grenade

Thrown next to some random oil barrels stacked in a pyramid formation.

Red barrels.

Barrels punch back.

It's just Nolan reshooting the bomb

As long as you jump away right when the explosion happens you should be totally OK. Maybe some ringing ears.

What about needing a MRI?

u/rangolikesbeans 4d ago

Nope, it's a Spongebob character that just blew up randomly.

u/GtrplayerII 4d ago

And no one died... Despite being within 5 feet of said grenade.

It's actually the government coverup of an attempted alien invasion.

You should probably turn off the gas

u/welcomefinside 4d ago edited 4d ago

what is going on in (south)east asia?

Lots of stuff on a typical day. It's a big place.

u/I_am_the_grass 4d ago

Exactly. People forget that SEA is one of the most densely populated parts of the world.

u/sopunny 3d ago

Plus, Thailand and Myanmar were the same event (the earthquake). So this is just two events happening at around the same time.

4

u/Downtown-Bluebird553 3d ago

Thailand shares a border with Myanmar/ Burma so idk why you’d think an earth quake felt by two countries wasn’t logical.

-2

u/icanmeowhehe 3d ago

its the mass destruction that feels unreal to me, its not about being logical or not, but the sheer trauma that both countries are going through. i hope the best for them

u/opposing_critter 3d ago

Good work camera person, steady enough and focused so I could really enjoy that explosion while on the move.

u/Introvert_Devo1987 2d ago

I bet you there was a lot of people thinking they were being nuke

2

u/Alex_Plumwood 2d ago

Yeah that's an impressive mushroom cloud. An actual nuke would be blindingly bright and obviously far more powerful.

4

u/fallior 4d ago

It's weird how a mushroom cloud that looks like smoke is really bad

But a mushroom cloud of fire is somehow a better outcome overall

On the contrary, it's quite hot!

u/devindran 4d ago

I'm sure the residents who got injured and lost their property thought otherwise.

18

u/IEatLamas 4d ago

I mean obviously it's fucked in every way, it still looks cool.

For all I knew it was out in the middle of nowhere, that's what it looks like.
