That sure shoots down any conspiracy theories, right? How frequently do you feel an explosion 20 miles away? This happens every day, right?

Only about every 55 years or so.

"Twelve minutes later, the Grandcamp disintegrated in a prodigious explosion heard as far as 150 miles distant."

"Buildings swayed in Baytown fifteen miles to the north."

Of course, it is a government website, so it's all lies. But it does hold some entertainment value.

I felt the Brenham pipeline explosion of 1992 in Houston -- 80 miles away. Reports indicated that the Brenham explosion was felt over 150 miles away.

It happens more often than you think.
