- mavdi 11y agoI don't think staying away from there door in that case would've made much difference. The shockwave flattened everything.
- tomp 11y agoHow do you know when an explosion is possible?
- thinkdevcode 11y agoIn this instance, a massive and towering inferno in a port/construction zone/etc would be a reasonable marker that an explosion is possible and likely imminent.

- mikeash 11y agoI don't know that it really applies to this video, but there are other videos out there of people recording video while looking at the window at the explosion, where they're far enough away to have a few seconds' warning before the shock wave hits.
- brianpan 11y agoAfter watching upwards of 3-4 videos on reddit today, I can confidently say that a large fire indicates an explosion is possible. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ROrpKx3aIjA https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ROrpKx3aIjA (explosion at 30s)
