Looked wild on the news. Looked like an Atomic bomb detonated...could even see the shock-wave... and awesome mushroom cloud.:eek: Amazing that nobody(so far) was killed...with the exception of the fireman who died of a heart-attack.

Hot damn that was a huge detonation. That was intense to say the least.

Did I mess something? There was no video of the blast in the report just a bunch of broken glass.

I don't live that far from the blast area. Though my home is far enough not to be evacuated. I didn't see the blast first hand, but I heard some weird booming in mid night. (I was building a server at 3 am or so at home.) I didn't know what it was until morning when I saw the news about it.

A danish CO2/Propane cascade refrigeration plant on fire (24-07-08).
The CO2 circuit was undamaged and could go on with another unit hooked up to the heat exchanger.
