RESIDENTS in Oxford were left shocked after a mystery fireball erupted in the sky after a massive bang.
Numerous locals in the city have been reporting about the "fireball" with the sky "pulsating with flames and smoke" this evening.
A number of concerned citizens took to X, formerly Twitter, to voice their concerns about the shock phenomenon.
One shocking video showed the night sky illuminated by a massive ball of flames.
The fire then billowed into the night, leaving locals stunned.
While another wrote: "Anybody else in Oxford see that fireball??
"Loud explosion and then the sky just did this, keep in mind it's supposed to be dark."
A third user also managed to grab footage of the "strange" event and noted that the "sky was pulsating".
Othe users online also agreed that the sky was "glowing for two minutes" before suddenly disappearing.
Some terrified members of the public reported they experienced a momentary loss of power shortly after the explosion.

“Why do so many people want to make a mystery out of this?”
We are living in a time of rampant hysteria.
Unfortunately, yes. This is fueled by 24 hr news, where everything is "breaking", "chilling" or "panicked" in the headline.
Also, there is substandard scientific education, in general, in the western world. We are reverting to the dark ages of mysticism to explaining simple physical phenomena.
- Severn Trent ***Green Power*** can confirm that at around 19:20 this evening, a digester tank at its Cassington AD facility near Yarnton, Oxfordshire, was struck by lightning resulting in the biogas within that tank igniting. -
one way or another, the whole green “old” deal is imploding.
No no way. This looks like a natural gas explosion
You’ve got the picture. It’s like the Middle Ages with technology.
I have and up until that time I didn’t think such colors existed in reality.

Well, I won’t reveal the construction details because some idiot would try it and blow himself up . . . but these were rather sophisticated (my late husband was actually a licensed Pyrotechnist) and they did make a large BOOM!
When my daughter was living in Spain, I several times sent “care packages” so she could cook! :-)
Please dont. Jim Rob probably doesnt want ATF raiding his servers...
That too . . . ! “don’t try this at home.”
