"A pretty big bomb not in direct contact with the ground (such as around someone's waist) won't make a hole --- the blast takes the path of least resistence --- which is up and out. MOST TELLING, however, is the LACK OF SHRAPNEL. If this guy planned on killing a bunch of people, he'd have taped nails to the outside of the bomb."
Right. He may have been hauling some stuff, some explosive chemical not put in a bomb. Maybe later-- maybe not ever intended for a bomb.
This is the funny part, though. There's still this media blackout problem. Heh. And it may have been an accident all along anyway.
Yeah, all the people who think there should be a big hole, go visit Tirinty Test Site in New Mexico.
The tower that held held the ATOMIC bomb either is still standing or was standing until recently.
