This explosion is the results of some explosive powder put into a small trash can and then wrapped in sacks of flour. Then a 50 caliber rifle was used to detonate the can. The explosion left an 8 foot hole in the ground and blew pictures off the wall over 62 acres away. There was nothing left of the can and flour sacks.

was it black powder , why did you add flour?

Platinum

The image is every bit as fascinating as the story behind it. Definitely a 4th to remember!!!!
