I was around during the Enschede, Netherlands fireworks factory explosion [0], just outside the radius where all glass shattered. Saw the glass ripple effect along a line of appartment buildings with full-height windows. A really astounding sight I'll never forget. With the amount of curvature caused by the shockwave it seemed these windows must surely break. But they did not.
