I absolutely love that video - it's pretty much Kerbal Space Program in real life!


I agree. I'm glad nobody got hurt, so I can enjoy it without guilt.

My favorite part is at the end when the sound from the explosion arrives. Everything is calm, then suddenly KABOOM! Really drives home how far away the thing is (because it takes so long for the sound to arrive) and how big it is (because it's still a massive KABOOM even at that distance).


the KABOOM is impressive, shock wave at that distance is more telling
