Italian guy says it's bullshit, these were weapons.

And then the ammonium nitrate, when it detonates, generates an unmistakable yellow cloud. Instead from the videos of the explosion, in addition to the white sphere that can be seen expanding, which is condensation of the air on the seashore, you can clearly see a brick orange column tending to bright red, typical of lithium participation. Which in the form of lithium-metal is the propellant for military missiles. I think there were armaments there. "

They call this dude Mr. Dynamite because he's the go-to explosives expert.

I think there was a first explosion of good magnitude, which may have started a fire where ammunition was stored, which would then have spread to where there was some high explosive contained in rockets or missiles.
I believe Mr. Dynamite because between the explosions you can clearly see secondary explosion, tons of them. I saw that I was like ammo depot is cooking off!

“I don't think there were 2700 tons of ammonium nitrate. The bomb dropped on Hiroshima developed an energy between 15 and 18 kilotons (between 15 thousand and 18 thousand tons of explosives), this could have reached 3. But if you take an amateur video, calculate the time that passes from the explosion to when the windows of those who film, divide by three, get the kilometers away explode. Here: there are destroyed windows 4 kilometers away. It seems plausible to me that there were 8-10 tons of high explosive.
I guess I'm back to the Sneaky J theory.

Great video find luls

like i said from day 1 a welder set something off, and all the secondary explosions from storing all kinds of other crap lit the fertilizer

Worst part is they will have to truck everything in from another port for the next 6 months during a pandemic, shit going to get bad there
