Pretty intense, just to see the silent explosion, then the shockwave hits you.

Translation from Russian: - Did you record the explosion? - I did... :O - Now that's a bang - Horror... horror D:

The shockwave was wierd, hardly any sound.

From the YouTube comments: [quote]It's just a little less than 2km, actually. Using a base of 60 degrees Fahrenheit, sound would travel about 340 meters per second. There was about 5 seconds between* seeing the blast and hearing it, meaning the blast occurred roughly 1,700 meters away, or 1.7 kms away. However, if my assumption of the temperature was wrong, it would only change the meters per second nominally, so there's a buffer of a few 10's of meters, but nothing drastic.[/quote] Someone either knows his shit or pretends to do very well.
