How did they know to have the camera randomly pointed at the exact spot the explosion would happen??
The huge smoke cloud and ongoing smaller explosions would be my guess.

This was filmed from on top of the white building.
So, it's certainly in a building and not a ship.

I think LSU Russian has this figured out. Initial incident cause LPG to release , then it ignited.
What caused the red smoke in that scenario?

Bright spot for him is that he will never have to listen to his wife yell at him again.

I was reading through some tweets. They were saying they believe the fireworks fire made it to a storage facility containing nitrate. For those unfamiliar, nitrate is what was used in the Oklahoma City bombing... now why in the frick nitrate was being so close to a fireworks depot, who knows.

Either that shite in Beirut wasn't fireworks, started as fireworks and worked to something else, or was the largest storage of fireworks in the world. That shite in Mexico doesn't TOUCH the explosion in Beirut.
