3 women in a building during the explosion, windows blown, woman flies across the room
Damn son. Crazy that she took the brunt of the hit and the other woman (maybe 3 feet away) was still on her feet.

The second explosion was far larger and involved the detonation of about 800 tonnes of ammonium nitrate (approx. 256 tonnes TNT equivalent)

On 4 August 2020, an explosion in a warehouse allegedly containing 2,750 tonnes (3,030 short tons) of ammonium nitrate occurred at the Port of Beirut, Lebanon. The explosion generated a shock-wave that was felt more than 240 kilometres (150 mi) away. Initial estimates of the yield of the explosion ranged from hundreds of tons of TNT equivalent,to between 1.0 and 1.5 kilotons

It must have something to do with her being in the room, maybe it concentrated the blast

Or all the debris from that window/wall getting blown back.

That’s crazy that one person in an enclosed space could be thrown across the room like a rag doll and another person a few feet away in an open space wouldn’t even be knocked off her feet. I would guess the smaller and tighter the room the worse the concussion would be. Science, baws.

Yeah, but the ones outside are probably deaf as a hammer now. Big girl is just sliced and diced.

I'm wondering if they are only reporting a death at this point if they find and/or identify a body. A lot of people may still be reported as "missing" and not technically dead yet.

it was probly the pressure difference between the room and the outside at the point of the explosion that caused it to implode and create a mini shock wave of sorts

She's beautiful, but very average for Lebanon. Lebanese women are the best

You just called your grandma hot? The frick?

My family has very good genes, yes. We're a very attractive bunch.
Don't get the wrong idea just bc the dating pool in the Louisiana swamp you grew up in doesn't extend beyond your family branch

How did this thread about an explosion in Beirut lead to a conversation about granny fricking?

Bc this board is full of a bunch of middle aged perverts that can't even let any woman be mentioned in passing without making some perverted sexual comment.
It's sick, and y'all need help.

Why do you hang around a place that you obviously hate so much, Bowl? Is it a Stockholm Syndrome type deal?
