My former hometown where I grew up was shocked yesterday by a massive gas explosion of around 300 gas bottles. I even could hear the explosions 20 kms away!
Fortunately, nobody was hurt! Roads were closed, the nearby train track (10 m away) and highway (100 m away) too. Over 100 firemen were on duty.
My father was just on the opposite side of the road at a car exhibiton, when it all begann. He stopped the traffic and then ran away like never before.
Some videos in Swiss German:
