Lots of things blow up in film that usually don't blow up in real life. ;-)

Reminds me of a scene in the movie "Top Secret", where a cheaply made foreign car very gently nudges the bumper of a rugged German-made car, and instantly explodes. Dateline NBC must have drawn inspiration from this scene.

The car that gets gently bumped in Top Secret! is a Ford Pinto -- a cheapo compact from the '70s infamous for exploding in rear-end collisions.

"Ist dein Tochter achtzehn, bitte?" Top Secret! is one of my all-time favorite flicks. It's worty watching just to hear the excruciating "East German National Anthem"...
