Man, in that first video look at the bottom of the screen right after the second explosion. That structure or whatever it was got blown to bits around the :05 sec mark right before it switches.

Hope breh made it out of that.
No possible way he survived. The Live stream pretty much confirms that. He was too close to the initial explosion to survive the second that was 5 times larger. We see the fence in front of him (looks like a trailer to me actually) and both structures on the sides of him start to disintegrate but if you pay attention, you see the ground itself crack apart and fly upwards. This man did not survive 10 times over.

So over 40 people died and 500 more injured :mjcry:


At least 44 are confirmed dead, 12 firefighters among them, state media reported Thursday. More than 500 are hospitalized, 66 with critical injuries. Dozens of firefighters are missing.

Local authorities suspended firefighting efforts because of a lack of information about the "dangerous goods" stored at the warehouse at the heart of the blasts, the state-run Xinhua news agency said.

The blasts originated at a warehouse site owned by Tianjin Dongjiang Port Rui Hai International Logistics Co. Ltd., a company that stores and transports dangerous chemicals, according to Xinhua. Company executives have been taken into custody, state media said.

The explosions' destructive force tore through Tianjin, smashing buildings and crushing shipping containers.

The first blast was huge, but the second was even more powerful -- the equivalent of 21 metric tons of TNT, according to the China Earthquake Networks Center.

Chinese products have no quality. I always trust German and Japanese products, other nations need to get their shyt together.

People saying 'China will surpass America', 'Their kids are smarter than ours', 'They are so advanced' etc. don't realize that innovation + accountability in constructions >>> worker ant mentality and 'catch-up' game industry.
