no kidding

was it carrying something else capable of exploding?

I haven't seen closeups of the video but another cause could be a fuel tank leak. Start dumping a few hundred gallons of hydrogen or oxygen onto the outside of a hot engine and you could have an explosion that's not the engine's fault.

I was considering the fuel as part of the engine I guess
