Do you mean the ones that exploded and were blown to bits?

No. The containment is what meatloaf posted. There is a shack built around and above the containment to keep leaves and bird droppings out. This outer building is only there to keep out the weather, and not to contain pressure. It is just a building with siding that blew up due to hydrogen being vented from the containment. The buildings are blown to bits, but the containments are intact.

This is part of the irrational panic. Everyone believes they saw containment blow up, which is NOT the case.
