Amazing video. Yesterday there was a thread about how to survive a nuclear blast. Lots of good advice there - except there should be one about “do not just stand there taking video of the explosion”.
I wonder how many people thought a nuke had gone off in their backyard!?

What a nightmare is right. And it could have been started by the smallest error.
“Hey Zuang - you should be using the special non-sparking brass wrench!”
“Oh - it will be okay. I just need to tighten this one little bolt just a bit more.”

I don’t know if the first image is a dual explosion or simply bisected by a massive amount of debris ejecting towards the photographer. One of the videos in this thread shows a more ‘side’ angle to the explosion, and you can see a massive plume of debris being fired at nearly sonic speeds towards the city center.

Twitter’s wrong on the math.. a 3.0 earthquake is equivalent to 1,000 pounds of tnt. A 2.5 is equivalent to 187 pounds.
Since it was an above ground explosion on recovered land, much of the shockwave below ground would have been absorbed by the soft material and not transferred over a distance for earthquake measurement.
