I don't think I have ever seen a building burn this fast.

Wow. Did they hose it down with kerosene first? Ridiculous.

Looks like it was built out of layers of flash paper.

What was the facade made out of? Chlorine trifluoride external insulation?

I think it’s the Urea in the Yak dung they use for construction!
Or some of that leftover melamine they were putting in the pet food they were selling us! (s)

I don't think I have ever seen a building burn this fast. This is a misrepresentation. It appears that the building was fully involved just prior to the "breakout" that we see in the video. Still, it's really something ...

Looks like it had been smoldering and heating for a while before the video started.
When the oxygen hit the heated gas flowing up it all went up into flames. The heat
most likely broke the lower windows where the original fire was and that gave fuel
to the flash fires upward.
No building material can flash that fast without major heat and flammable
gasses created by smoldering. Firefighters all know this and there's
been several movies about this very same topic. (Flashover)

I sure hope everyone got out because if they didn’t then didn’t stand a chance.
That’s all I need to see to not buy Chinese building materials for our next home project.

I’m guessing here, but “ooie doah” probably translates to “holy $h!t”
I’m also guessing that Chinese building codes are a bit different than ours.

One of the comments on Liveleak:
The Skin of the building is likely foam panels with an elastomeric coating on it. To the unknowing it looks like stucco, but it's just foam with a rubber mixed with sand coating.. As a side note I feel we will be seeing more and more of this kind of fire as this shit is being used all over the place is a lightweight alternative to cement stucco..
