Looking at the 1st part of this video had me wondering as there was mangled bodies scattered all over the road at night. The explosion happened during the day, so I can guess EMS didn't yet get to where this person shot the video yet.

Wat da fack
I work in excavations, over Christmas I was in a quarry where they used ammonium nitrate to blast face rock, so short explanation, we'd used excavators loading dump trucks to dig away the overburden to expose sufficient amount of rock bed, contract a blasting outfit and they'd bring a drilling rig to make deep holes in the rock bed fill them with ammonium nitrate and blast the face then we'd get in the bottom clear it all up, crush it into a certain size and spec and sell it. This stuff can bang and it really does chip away at the earth with really small amounts, I'm not surprised (knowing what material has blown up) that so much of it has done as much damage

Nope, it's what happens when you have a fire & burn ammonia nitrate.
