yeah those people in that video, sitting there videoing/watching the fire when it exploded, must have been scared sh-tless !!... That little town of about 3000 residents, near Waco Texas, they still don't know the total damages,losses... From what I read & heard, I guess it started as a small fire, a couple of fire fighters & paramedics were dispatched & onsite, then a 1/2 an hour later Kaboom, my deepest heart felt condolences & sympathy go out to all the people involved in this "true tragedy", I read they felt the explosion over some almost 25 miles away, it blew doors & windows open...

Wow I would have been startled as hell too ... good on the boyfriend. He asked immediately if the girl was safe. She said she couldn't hear and I wounder if he could as he didn't respond to her. Such a tragedy.
