WAFB page with a wedding video that captures the blast

Don’t know if this has been posted or not.

I haven’t seen that video, and I’d like to see more of the bride.

Its like they are so immune to explosions and bombs in the middle east. No screams no panic lets just get da fuq out of here at a steady pace. Oh and BTW watch your step there's glass everywhere

Well, if Beirut was an attack, the "second plane" may have just revealed itself.

She wasn't getting married yesterday, yesterday was the photo shoot for the photo album, etc.

The close up and attention to the dress was being done by drone, and then it kept filming, as the groom took her into a restaurant which he expected to be a safer place.

No way that dress could be cleaned for future use.

It’s a shame that a country known for terrorism is plagued by......terrorism.

F-em.

There's no way I'd be driving on a highway that close to the fire. Especially after watching video from yesterday's explosion.

The death toll is up to 135 with 5,000+ injured. I haven't seen it posted on the last few pages.

I’d expect it to be way more than that.

boat four and boat three deposited the explosives, or they disappeared in the carnage?

I guess, if you have to pick a spot within a dense city for 5 million lbs of ammonium nitrate to explode, this was about the best option.

Warehouse is hugging the water, so a good chunk of the worst blast radius was out over the water, with another large percentage of it hitting what appears to be low human density warehouse space.

If there had a couple waterfront high rise apartment buildings right next to this warehouse? Yikes.....

People that want their reception
theme to be taco Tuesday? The Arabic word for Tuesday sounds a lot like falafels so maybe that could be the reason. Falafels are delicious.
