I agree, this article just seems to strain credibility. Forest fires aren't candles. You can't just "blow out" a solidly burning piece of tree. And after the explosion, you still have a lot of fuel hanging around—it's just going to start burning again moments later... long before any fire crew can traverse the safe distance from a FREAKING BOMB DROPPED FROM A PLANE. (The key reason bombs work for oil fires is because the fuel gushing out of the well isn't hot. Blowing it up denies it oxygen for enough time to deny it heat. Plus any hot oil gets flung a good distance from the well head.)
