Default Posted today, Seymour Narrows Explosion Video!

Back in 1958, this was the largest non-nuclear explosion in history.

Rocks were thrown 1,000 feet into the air. The vaporized water became
an instant cloud. Over 300 tons of underwater mountaintops were
removed to improve passage through Seymour Narrows.
