What happens when you detonate 429 tons of military grade high explosives all at once. The initial explosion at the very beginning is only 30 tons.To give you a size perspective this video was shot from 2-3 miles away out side of the frag radius (sort of). If you watch closely you can see the blast wave travel toward us.
