Jesus Christ.
That's fucking horrifying.
Holy shit
Holy
Fuck
Hopefully the kid can hear after a while and the explosion didn't fuck his/her eardrums.
Holy...Crap! Feel so bad for everyone around that, especially still evacuating or standing around if they were...
I also feel bad for the kid and Father in this video, would this create permanent hearing loss?

I was wondering the same thing. I'm not too sure if it would damage the eardrum or not. They were fairly close and it was a massive explosion, it's hard to tell how loud it actually was from the video.
This is a prime example why you should stay away from shit like this. Rubber necking and putting yourself near a situation like this can have very negative consequences...as found out.
I hope the kid is OK.

I'm sure the kid's fine, it was just loud as fuck. I've been to an airshow where the Blue Angels flew really low and fast enough that you couldn't really hear them coming, and they flew directly over head (I wasn't at an airfield). My lil ol' young ears were ringing a bit and I couldn't hear as well for a couple minutes. Take a blast that's much louder? Yeah fuck that
Remind me of

Possibly, it was pretty damn close, hopefully it's only temporary.

That person on the ground in the right hand corner, trying to crawl away, :(
holy shit
as horrible as this is i think that's the biggest explosion I've seen, at least aside from the 9/11 attacks
That's fucking scary, shit.
Poor kid :(

Jesus christ that's one HELL of a blast.
I had no idea how hazardous those facilities could be
What the fuck dad why are you endangering your child for quick internet fame.
I don't think he knew something like that could happen, he wass quite far away you know.
[QUOTE=Zeemlapje;40324840]What the fuck dad why are you endangering your child for quick internet fame.[/QUOTE]
He probably wasn't trying to. You can be driving down the highway and see a fire and say "Wow, that looks pretty nuts. I wonder what's going on" then boom everybody die

If you didn't know what was stored there you'd probably think that 500m or so is a good standoff distance to get a cool video of a massive fire
Did anyone else see that one video of a Russian guy driving and filming with a dash cam? It seems like a typical day in Russia, until the car in front blows up out of nowhere...

I think it's this one. Same point made. Shit just seems to blow up out of nowhere in Russia. Even on the roads.
Yeah I linked the correct video. It's all coming back to me :D
Holy shit. I dont think the other videos even contest with the hugeness of that explosion, jesus.
I was not expecting an explosion of that scale, holy shit.
The explosion was so bad that it actually managed to register on the earthquake scale..I believe it was like a 2-3.0.
Poor H.W. Plainview.
No seriously though, I hope that kid is okay.
