Jeez that nanny and the kids are so lucky that the glass didn’t shatter
@Vin 🤣. I bet you he thought it was dino-mite. Lmaoo. Yo how can ppl be soo S?? 🤷 Jeez.
@Jason S right. Some said cole dude has the brain of a stagesurous. Which he does. He must of thought it was dino-mite. Lol.
it is the ME, they build with explosions in mind
Probably tempered and laminated Glass.
Uh the glass did shatter look closely. The one that landed on the table is completely broken.
once again… subtitles covered by the thumbnail suggestions at the end of video…. EVERY TIME.
I know, their editor needs to be fired and tarred and feathered.
@Llama King Old school. I like it.
@Greener01 What’s this extension called?
It’s like no one there notices or cares.
@Llama King hung from his toes!
omg…force of that blast is scary
Just to put this into perspective, the Atomic bomb that was dropped on Hiroshima was about 10 times more powerful and a modern day Nuclear Bomb is THOUSANDS of times more powerful than this….. So the devastation that a Nuclear War would cause is unimaginable….
@eppsislike
OK. Keep it in your pocket and roam in China.
@Kolas
I can tell you that the observable universe is 92 billion light-years in diameter but you can’t imagine that.
The fact that humans haven’t agreed yet to disassemble/destroy all their nuclear bombs yet speaks volumes about modern day society and what our future may possibly be
@Stonewall the mother of all bombs tzar hydrogen bomb had a blast radius of 60 kilometres.
Bruh hiroshima had the power of 15k ton of tnt this is nowhere close to that
This is so sick and it wasn’t even a nuclear or hydrogen bomb. No I understand why humanity should get rid of any kind of nuclear bombs.
You do know Nukes are keeping the worlds major powers in check through the concept of M.A.D this is why you only see regional conflicts that are deescalated should it grow even further than it needs to.The world is at peace albeit with everyone pointing their own guns are each other scared being the one who pulls the trigger.
@JDela10 tell that to a sociopathic individual buddy
now*
Humanity will NEVER get rid of atomic/nuclear weapons. Those weapons are used to keep superpowers in check.
@jessewahwah You left out the biggest bully of them all, the USA who has, mind you, used nuclear weapons in the past out of hate and revenge.
this is not even 10% of fatman and littleboy. can u imagine what nuclear explosion be like?. RIP to those innocent japanese civilian who tremendously suffered in 1945
@Frank H. Please put that sentence back in your mouth
@Frank H. Wtf are you on? Do you not understand physics?
Well, they were at war. What about the thousands of Americans killed at Pearl Harbour? In a war nobody wins.
Hiroshima and Nagasaki Senior Citizens: We don’t need to imagine we know all about it!
@Legendary Amazing sure do and if you did you would question what you think you know.
if this happened in New York it would’ve destroyed half of lower mahattan completely. This i
And I guarantee you NYC’s port has something similar (the same thing even) packed to the rafters in 1 of its wherhouses.
More glass is there for sure.
bless those folks…my heart goes out to all..
I can image the baby luck in his life this is how his nation welcomed him
I was six years old when the Lebanese civil war started in 1975 and the first image I remember in my life is of that day when my father was almost killed in front of my eyes. So I can relate with George.
he sure came into this world with a bang, that’s for sure
Wow, that was intense to watch, I can’t imagine being there 😱
Kids know when to run. Adults have forgotten.
Kids are more instinctive than adults. Especially modern day adults who have spent their whole lives learning how to suppress their instincts.
0:39 to the contrary.
I’m on the other side of the globe three days later and I still have a lump in my throat.
Thomas Hughes same. And my heart hurts.
I got numb
My cat scratched me
can you imagine the damage had the explosion NOT been near/in the sea?
I don’t understand how a government could let this happen
Two words:
Weak Leadership
when corruption is tolerated on a small scale, it won’t stop until it gets to that Beirut level. So let’s fight it at every level.
I’m sure someone not getting enough money to have it hauled off of dispersed caused it to sit there for 6 years… next to fireworks
@TheKnives777 No the hauler at that port were weak so it was not able to move quickly, if government helped them it could have just taken away easily
That’s what happens in third world countries where there’s very little rules and regulations to avoid things like this.
i love how nanny protects kids with her body ….
You mean how the nanny uses kids to protect her face and her body? …and then run away while leaving one behind?
I love how she endangers them by watching a catastrophe from their window close by instead of bringing them to their room.. i get that hindsight is 20/20 and that warehouse fire might have seemed harmless at first but the second the fireball rises to the sky you know youre in a bad place in a few seconds once that shockwave arrives
0:20 Girl in orange gets squashed by 2 giants panes of laminated glass.
0:40 that is one tough kid, took the impact and got right back up
survival instinct i suppose
*quick translation to those who don’t understand arabic*
1:01 “ya adra” means “Oh Mary” or “Dear Mary”
when that baby grows up they’re gonna have a crazy story to tell
“Staff unharmed” shows them getting hit with debris
“unharmed” has a different definition in the Middle East.
@codent what does it mean then?
@codent yeah can you tell me to what that means?
