Don’t think that was a bomb

Looks like just a car speeding and gas tank blew up.
Are people just in panic mode?
Edit: detectives are already saying it probably wasn’t a bomb. So yeah. I think the country is terrified.
Another link from other angle. Thanks for posting philter: LINK
Confirmed not a bomb. Bunch of people on here wanted something that just wasn’t true if you took an honest look at the videos.

Does that spontaneously happen very often? There are how many cars passing through the border every day, yet I've never heard of one spontaneously exploding just as it passed through the border checkpoint.
And how would a car bomb vs. an exploding gas tank look, in your opinion?

Are you too good for the already existing thread on this?

You wouldn’t if they were going 100 and full tank of gas and hitting a concrete barricade. But we shall see if there are any more videos. The original seems like a car accident. Not a bomb.

I have seen it happen. Guy was going 75ish and lost control. Hit a wall and truck blew up. He was killed instantly. So yeah. It can happen.

Head on collisions of vehicles doing a combined 100+mph unfortunately happens far too often. I have seen cars catch on fire. I have watched a car burn for 15 mijutes until there was nothing less than a frame.
I've never seen one explode.

The video linked didn’t appear to be a “large explosion” as others are saying. Hopefully there are more videos. We shall see.

Well, yeah - did you see what happened when a nasty virus came ashore? Left, Center and Right, the country is teeming with achingly soft pussies.

Leaning that way myself
Too much glass still intact for it to have been a car bomb

"Large Explosion" is imo a bit of relative term... was it large like the Oklahoma bombing.. ?? no..
However, pics that I have seen of the aftermath clearly shows an explosion due to the destruction of the vehicle..
Also, imo the video seems to indicate there was an explosion and then the gas tank ignited as a secondary event.. but the two were close together (if that makes sense..)
I am no expert tho...
ETA: at the 2 sec mark, the video camera begins to "shake", this is imo when the initial explosion occurred. Then at about the 4 sec mark the gas ignites..
Again.. just speculating based upon the video..

Awesome. My first thought as well.

Spontaneously? The car flew 40 or 50 feet in the air and landed in a pool of concrete columns, buildings, and barricades at what looks to be 100mph+.

I’m reserving all judgment until Hank weighs in

It may be uncommon for a gas tank to blow up, but it's more uncommon for a bomb to leave glass teller windows in tact 10 feet away:
Looks like a car that came apart in catastrophic crash bouncing off poles and barriers.
