Copper Thief Causes Massive Explosion

discipline out this UK video of a row house blowup . Taken by the railway locomotive Cam River , it ’s frightening and awful at the same fourth dimension .

Right before the explosion , a chemical group of firefighters just rescue a bunch of people from their houses after a news report of a kitchen fire . While they were still cleaning up , the house explode with an unbelievable force . Several bursts of fire , flying glass , the works . Two of the theater were part destruct and four had significant damage from the blast .

The cause of this explosion was a Peter Cooper thief who slew a nearby overhead line . This produced an electrical disturbance that reacted with the gas line in the houses . Add some electric twinkle to extremely combustible gas and you get a big boom . Thankfully , no one was in earnest smart in the flak . [ Hat Tip to Jonathan Seal , YoutubeviaThe Examiner ]
