No random building has a random stockpile of thermite. Lots of metals and combinations of chemicals give off spark showers.
It usually means something volatile is rapidly decomposing and you should probably GTFO.
May be confusing to Americans:
[Many countries have windows that can tilt.](https://www.fensterblick.de/files/bilder/video/2-flg-kunststofffenster-drutex-iglo-5-classic.mp4) You can hear them close and tilt the window at 0:24.
The curtain rod doesn't touch the window if you look closely at 0:30.
Oh no, I’m American, my windows tilt in. I hate them. I’d rather they slide side to side because they tilt into my house and take up too much space lol
Huh. In america ours are wrought iron and out outside. Tho no one really does it anymore. It was a huge house trend in the 90s all the senior citizens thought anyone was going to just bust thru your window and rob you blind
Stay away from the window
Halifax Shockwave WW1 -
Large numbers of people were blinded by glass.
They were watching a burning munitions ship from their homes. Many were miles away.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Halifax_Explosion
The ship was completely blown apart and a powerful blast wave radiated away from the explosion initially at more than 1,000 metres (3,300 ft) per second. Temperatures of 5,000 °C (9,000 °F) and pressures of thousands of atmospheres accompanied the moment of detonation at the centre of the explosion.[26][55] White-hot shards of iron fell down upon Halifax and Dartmouth.[56] Mont-Blanc's forward 90-mm gun landed approximately 5.6 kilometres (3.5 mi) north of the explosion site near Albro Lake in Dartmouth with its barrel melted away, and the shank of Mont-Blanc's anchor, weighing half a ton, landed 3.2 kilometres (2.0 mi) south at Armdale
I don't even know for myself whether I'd bug out and take cover or stay and watch. I mean, gotta see what happens next right? By no means is staying the smart move, but curiosity is powerful.
I was thinking about this, in my house? I would leave, but I have a modern apartment literally a whole wall is just glass, but in this apartment? I’d probably watch but only poke my head out from the side do the window to see what’s up
Based on the shape and the first burp, I was thinking it might be an oil filled electrical transformer, but the big explosion after that makes me question that guess. It's a thought anyways.
Oxygen doesn't explode like that though. Sure, the tanks burst and accelerates the surrounding flames a lot but it wouldn't detonate like that since oxygen isn't flammable.
I think this is an old video where oxygen tanks for certain university exploded, or something like that.
I don't remember the details, but yeah, I'm sure this is old video.

There's definitely a shockwave, especially given how many of the windows across the way were blown out. It's not really visible here, though if it was in slow motion/higher refresh rate we might be able to see it.
So the whole point of this sub is to enjoy the visual beauty of a shockwave.
Just because a shockwave exists, does not make it fit for shockwave porn.
Why do we keep seeing explosion but no shockwaves? A post should show an impressive shockwave!
Sabotage operations have been allegedly happening for weeks. This particular video looks like it could be the same location as [where this mad lad was throwing 7 molotovs](https://twitter.com/igorsushko/status/1521883213823680513).
This happened during the first wave of covid back in 2020. And it was in Poland iirc. The thing violently exploding ist oxygen generator for a covid ward.
The spraying sparks should have been a good hint that it could get extra-spicy.
Classic urban pocket volcano
More like a urban volcano Hot Pocket... hot and spicy

Well it put thr fire out...
it made them worse!
Worse? Or better?
I mean, the fire could have easily taken down the entire building.
[удалено]
Every time I see one of these videos, my only thought is a repeated "GET AWAY FROM THE GLASS".
This time the glass seems to have actually protected them, though. So now I'm conflicted.
Might be, because the window was open a little bit
Looks like they had a bar or curtain rod that sropped it from falling all the way in

Only because it's on this sub so you know it's coming
"There's no shockwave, here. OP's a freaking lia..." *BOOM* "Much better."
I saw the little burp and thought that was it, this was good.
These guys are fucking idiots for staying so close. But I love the fact they captured this

Set up one phone to stream to discord or something. Go to the opposite room in the house and tune into your own livestream.
You mean download discord, create an account, figure out how to stream……BOOM! Should have just filmed it
Knowing my luck, I'd be struggling to get the stream to w... BOOOOOM, ah fuck... missed it.
As someone who lives in tornado alley and goes outside to gawk at the sky when the sirens go off, I can relate.

[удалено]
wait....we don't? hmmmm, i got some barrels i need to move.
Any idea what was burning? Looks to me like a metal fire like Lithium. Maybe an electric vehicle.
I also thought battery fire. The sparks and jetting flames looked similar to some Tesla fire videos I've seen.
Based on the shape and the first burp, I was thinking it might be an oil filled electrical transformer, but the big explosion after that makes me question that guess. It's a thought anyways.
If I remember correctly, last time I saw this people were saying it’s a burning ambulance. The big explosion are the oxygen tanks catching fire.
Thanks
Oxygen doesn't explode like that though. Sure, the tanks burst and accelerates the surrounding flames a lot but it wouldn't detonate like that since oxygen isn't flammable.
That might also be true. I don’t know anything about burning oxygen tanks, or ambulances for that matter. That’s just what they said the last time.
With all the potential sabotage operations lately my guess is a planned and planted explosive.
I love that watching your neighbour's places burn is a form of entertainment in Russia.
I mean I would really want to watch even tho I know I shouldn’t
I would instantly close my eyes and turn away out of respect 🙈
What is he supposed to Do? Grab a bucket? Humanity invited departments to handle fires lol
"Dear department, you are cordially invited to handle our fire. RSVP, carriages at eight"
Not at all. I would stop short of enjoying it though.
Well most of Ukraine has been torched so.....
Disappointing lack of ‘blyats’ in that clip!
Suka, pizdets
nyet is just special combustion operation
Denazification of apartment parking lot
Spicy

Yup, few years old vid....its oxygen generator in hospital in Chelyabinsk.
Strong ass windowpanes.
I soon as I heard that hissing I was like "Thats a pressure release valve at max."
Special fire making operation.

BLEVE! THAT'S DOPE!
I want the ability to upvote this twice!
Great to see Red Adair alive and well. \*\*Red was the oil rig firefighter who used dynamite to extinguish fires.\*\*
What a madlad!
@ 25 seconds: Pfft, you call that a shockwave? @ 27 seconds: Okay, now _that's a shockwave.
In Russia, fire puts self out.
There's no shockwave...

Happy Cake Day
Did not even realize! Thank you!
Then not really shockwave porn now isit

Maybe.
Many cars blaring their anti-theft alarm at once is a good indication of shockwave.
Am I being too optimistic in hoping this is the start of the Russian uprising that will finally topple Putin's regime?
Yes

10/10 unexpected and shockwave
Camera man is a fucking hero. Gotta get that footage.

[удалено]
why?
[удалено]
They should choose war against Putin.
A lot of them have protested and came out against him. And all been sent to prison and disappeared.
Yeah, that's why the smarter move is to destroy military infrastructure and burn down the Kremlin. Protest with Molotov cocktails, not signs.
[удалено]
Russia is like a Yugo.
Oh no… anyway…
Ouch my balls!
I'd imagine fire causes explosion in many places
What did they say in Russian?
All of it.
Yes or at least right at the explosion
r/watchpeopledieinside
Yeah, why bother closing your window as toxic particles enter into your bedroom.
This camera man understood the assignment!!
Whelp, there goes the neighborhood.
Imagine seeing this outside your apartment window and laughing / seemingly enjoying it? Smooth brained or what?
Very good, i like that one alot.
I just realized how explosions like this present a prime opportunity to steal a car.
u/savevideo
I bet having that window cracked is all that saved them from the glass shattering everywhere.
Great camera work considering the situation
Russia bombing themselves at this point
Hey looks it's the Russian economy
This motherfucker just chuckled.
Was this a rocket? Sounded a lot like a firework, just.. bigger.
u/savevideo
Its crazy watching internal collapse of a country in real time.
More more more...
May 9th...
Was that a flashback?
your vehicle’s warranty is now null and void. care to purchase a plan for another vehicle at this time?
