>>10972908it's an oxidizer, there is a requirement of 2000 upwards tons of fuels to come even close to the force of explosion that happened, it's a physical "hard requirement" to create a certain force of explosion
it by itself is incombustible (can't react with oxygen) and even contamination in most cases will not lead to explosion
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_ammonium_nitrate_disasters which is explained and sourced here
it still doesn't make the explosive forces possible, which have already been widely published and seen but check out this funny person
https://www.richardsilverstein.com/2020/08/04/breaking-israel-bombed-beirut/ he sources how Lebanon was threatened to have exactly this happen to it a few days before.
>>10972910read thread to see the points made about the difference between that, Tianjin and this
https://mobile.twitter.com/solidas6/status/1290772610071113730 only nuclear explosions have this flash, which is seen in worse quality on other cameras, Tianjin doesn't have it, beside that most videos of explosions are captured with smartphone.
The explosion also awfully looks a lot different in it's expansion and circular form, than any other you might find, also there is videos from angles where it seems like the expansion starts a good deal above the ground.
>>10972915ahh that makes a lot of sense why it looks so strange on other devices, it's a distinguishing quality to other explosions
>>10972913Well no, but I expect it kind of, I mean, going through the Van Allen belt does something similar to your eyes, just a lot more temporary, tho beside liking the argument, I wouldn't know how I should value it, I mean, since the first quick light flash is radiation, I could imagine it killing pixels.
