The detonation was likely caused by sodium nitrate:

Betting he's into the violent adolescent shooting games, bigly. Sad. :(

BTW, Pinto, this ancient version of vBulletin was written before Responsive Design. Your massive images screw with it, big time. Please read the forum rules...

My bad, I have a 4K monitor so what looks small to me is potentially huge to others.

Can see the shockwave in this video:

I cringed at the sight of the shock wave.

Knew it was going to hurt the camera operator.

Yeah...lots and lots and lots of shrapnel wounds to people. I'm still scratching my head at what could cause such a blast. Officially they're saying ammonium nitrate but we're talking like 500+ tons of it for a blast that big. It shook windows 110 miles away.

2750 tons of ammonium nitrate...

If my math is right, this detonation was approximately equivalent of 1.155 kilotons of TNT. Halifax was approximately the equivalent of 3 kilotons of TNT.

78 dead, almost 4000 injured:
