no crap. we were at a meeting at church and we just hear this little "pop" and all look around like we think we may have heard something.
Then I went to another thing afterwards at the church and my friend was getting off the phone and his sister and BiL that lived across the street from that explosion. blew the windows out into his face, cut him up, and threw him against a wall and knocked him out.

That explosion was the equivalent of the smallest nuke ever produced by America. 21 tons of explosive. The bomb was called the Davy Crockett. The explosion is also 681 times smaller than the bomb we dropped on Hiroshima.

from another thread...

ok, so that 2nd huge (the bigger one) explosion was ~20 tons of TNT equivalent. the bomb we dropped on hiroshima was ~20,000 tons of TNT and the B83 nuke we currently have in service, which is weaker than what we used to use, is equivalent to ~1,200,000 tons of TNT.
and just for fun, the USSR tested the world's largest bomb ever built, called the Tsar bomb, and that was the equivalent of 50,000,000 tons of TNT.

That Tsar bomb was only tested at half explosive capacity and still blew down houses (albeit shitty stone and wood Russian houses) 30 miles away.

I love the Americans half chuckle to the question "are we dangerous here?" By the Chinese lady.
