- Warning: This video contains disturbing content. Discretion advised.
The moment of the massive explosion that rocked the Lebanese capital Beirut, killing more than 137 people and injuring thousands, was captured in high definition by a shop owner who was recording when the blast hit.
Video shows smoke rising from Beirut's port with small sparks being seen in what is believed to be fireworks that were set off by the blaze. According to reports, fireworks were stored in the same warehouse where 2,750 tons of ammonium nitrate had previously been stored. After several seconds of recording, a massive explosion bursts outwards, which then moves outwards towards where the shop owner is, the resulting shockwave impacting multiple buildings in the process.

This shot looks like something straight out of a movie with all of the simultaneously shattered windows and dust..
It’s kinda scary
Hollywood actually got that right I guess they had all the atom bomb test footage to base their movies on
Kinda scary, is terrifying
JESUS DIED & ROSE AGAIN TO FREE U FROM SIN ACCEPT HIS GIFT✝️✝️✝️
They should use this in a movie
This is very similar to what happened in Halifax, Nova Scotia in 1917. I believe nearly 2000 people died. The explosion as described essentially leveled most of the town in an instant, and for very much similar reason.
A French cargo ship fully loaded with the explosives TNT and picric acid, the highly flammable fuel benzol and guncotton.
“Hey, let’s put THESE explosives next to those flammable stuff. What can go wrong?”
Haha
So after seeing this video with your own eyes, you still believe it was a simple case of fireworks lighting ammonia nitrate? Even though you can actually see a direct energy weapon being used on the left. Just wow.
@Reddot Sxul he was not supposed to be funny ....
It's more like let's put these explosives next to the explosives.
Those who survived, said that they heard noises in the sky like helicopters before the explosion, it can't be a normal explosion
Jesus a news agency that provides a full unedited clip from start to finish after the commentary finishes? I am unironically thoroughly impressed.
Amazing when someone reports the story and tells the truth as it happened. We have to watch Australian Sky News to get a good report on America
Hello ! May Allah protect and guide you to his light and happiness in this life and the hereafter, God bless, Ameen. Excuse me for giving a little presentation of Islam, because it is very misunderstood nowadays, especially on those « Antichrist's » times, where media and politics are mixed to distort history and truth. And terrorists (puppets of the Antichrist) who misinterpret verses, out of ignorance and political motivations, and take them out of historical context (just like radical atheists do by the way), don't help either. Thank you very much for your time.
Islam is an arabic word that means the Surrender to the One and Only God, our Creator, Protector, Provider, who gives us life and all that we have, we are safe and sound by his will and grace, we are His and to Him we return, and we have to thank him in this trial life by submitting to him by our free will, or later in the Day of judgment when it's too late to save our own skin. Islam was the original Religion descended to earth from heaven with Adam and Eve (peace and blessing be upon them) in the beginning of humanity. and was passed to people with the succession of the 124 000 prophets and 315 messengers of God to all nations and civilizations since, passing by Noah, Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Ismaël, Joseph, Moses, Aaron, Joshua, David, Solomon and Jesus (Peace and blessing be upon them) during the history of mankind, the last replaces and completes the previous, until the succession of the last messenger of God fourteen centuries ago, Muhammad (Peace and blessing be upon him) to complete the noble morals of all mankind, to bring humans and jinns out of darkness into light, and to purify people's religion and belief from corruption and polytheism, and return it to purity and true monotheism, like it was in the times of the prophets (Peace and blessing be upon them).
Many Religions that we know nowadays, at their beginning were true and under Islam, initiated by one of the prophets of God, but their original teachings, history and scriptures have been corrupted over time with falsification and polytheism, or lost and replaced with false ones. That's why Islam is the only Religion accepted by God nowadays, which consists in bearing witness that there is no god besides Allah (God in Aramaic, the original language of Jesus and the Gospel), and that Muhammad is His servant and messenger, just like Jesus and Moses and others are His servants and messengers. Never a messenger of God said he was God or literally son of God, it was the people after him who changed the words of God and corrupted the Religion. God is unique and absolute, He does not need to have a family and sons or to associate anyone else with His kingdom, He can simply create whatever He wants, everything belongs to Him, and to Him everything will return. Allah said in Surah Al-Mu’minun : “God has never begotten a son, nor is there any god besides Him. Otherwise, each god would have taken away what it has created, and some of them would have gained supremacy over others. Glory be to God, far beyond what they describe. The Knower of the hidden and the manifest. He is exalted, far above what they associate. (91-92 / Translated by ITANI).
Allah means the one and only God, the God of all prophets and creatures, the creator of the universe and mankind, and the Master of the Day of judgment, where our destiny, Hell or Paradise, is decided based on our faith and deeds in this trial life, and above all, Allah's mercy.
Allah said in Surah Al-Ikhlas : In the name of God, the Gracious, the Merciful.
Say, “He is God, the One. God, the Absolute. He begets not, nor was He begotten. And there is none comparable to Him.” (1-4 / Translated by ITANI).
Allah said in Surah An-Nisa : O FOLLOWERS of the Gospel! Do not overstep the bounds [of truth] in your religious beliefs, and do not say of God anything but the truth. The Christ Jesus, son of Mary, was but God's Apostle - [the fulfilment of] His promise which He had conveyed unto Mary - and a soul created by Him. Believe, then, in God and His apostles, and do not say, "[God is] a trinity". Desist [from this assertion] for your own good. God is but One God; utterly remote is He, in His glory, from having a son: unto Him belongs all that is in the heavens and all that is on earth; and none is as worthy of trust as God. Never did the Christ feel too proud to be God's servant, nor do the angels who are near unto Him. And those who feel too proud to serve Him and glory in their arrogance [should know that on Judgment Day] He will gather them all unto Himself: (171-172 / Translated by Muhammad Asad).
Allah the Most Merciful said in Surah Ali-Imran : Behold, the only [true] religion in the sight of God is [man's] self-surrender unto Him; and those who were vouchsafed revelation aforetime took, out of mutual jealousy, to divergent views [on this point] only after knowledge [thereof] had come unto them. But as for him who denies the truth of God's messages - behold, God is swift in reckoning!
Thus, [O Prophet,] if they argue with thee, say, "I have surrendered my whole being unto God, and [so have] all who follow me!" - and ask those who have been vouchsafed revelation aforetime, as well as all unlettered people, "Have you [too] surrendered yourselves unto Him?" And if they surrender themselves unto Him, they are on the right path; but if they turn away - behold, thy duty is no more than to deliver the message: for God sees all that is in [the hearts of] His creatures.
Verily, as for those who deny the truth of God's messages, and slay the prophets against all right, and slay people who enjoin equity - announce unto them a grievous chastisement.
It is they whose works shall come to nought both in this world and in the life to come; and they shall have none to succour them.

The second I saw the "fog ball" I was thinking "supersonic or hypersonic shock wave". Those are no joke (obviously), and the force that lingers in the wave sort of collides with air resistance at a certain distance from the explosion, creating another shock wave. So it's two shock waves, the second shock wave caused by the first colliding with air. Behold, pure annihilation.
@@islamisthetruewaytogod6812Shut up.
Shock waves are usually what does most of the damage and killing with explosions. Released kinetic energy is no joke
@@islamisthetruewaytogod6812 allah hates you
The way the outer layers of stone on the buildings are just shaved off is scary to see.
In a nuclear explosion everything just seizes to exist this doesn't come near what a nuke can do. Terrifying to think about.
@Dub Jubs it is almost certain that ,next to the massive load of explosives, stored away in sort of bunker, they stuffed the warehouse with fireworks...basically also nitrates, but even less stable and can be used as a fuse for setting the larger load of ammoniumnitrate off. nothing to do with nukes; however shockwave and dammage can be compared,why not.
@@MB-jg4tr stop embarassing yourself.
Magic MonkeyLOVE bruh you lost the argument move on 😘
@@MB-jg4tr there are satellites which are looking for the characteristic double flash, which every nuke does produce on our planet... its part of the eary warning system
the way buildings acted when it was reached by the shock wave is so scary.
I can't imagine how such a shock wave must feel to a body while being thrown around like a piece of straw in a storm. Not to mention the injuries from broken glass, objects flying around in your own room, everything around you turning to dust etc. Horrific.
That is the dust and loose material being lifted off the surfaces of the buildings by the blast wave. It’s astonishing how powerful the blast was.
@@ici_marmotte Really, if you were any closer than this video camera, your body would probably be instantly vaporised. Blown apart into gas by the heat and/or shock wave.
Buildings have no capacity to act..
@@Harris665 now you're being ignorantly sarcastic
You see the camera shake almost immediately as the explosion happens. The shockwave travels so much faster through the ground and then takes around 2 seconds to travel through air
Years later this is still a terrifying video to see.
Seeing the city in person after the blast is a heart breaker, many people still stuck underground waiting for help, dozens have died due to the lack of air, food, water, medicine... The amount of damage is unforgettable, and yet the general director of Beirut port still has the balls to state "I didn't know the real danger of these chemicals"
Is he still a General Director?
@@EVNL576 Sympathy all around. The stupidity of people in positions of responsibility. This was a ticking time bomb for literally the last 6 years. It appears they chose to ignore the risks! unbeleiveable.
he’s a general director not a chemist cut him some slack he’s going through enough as it is
SkullSmasher605 If you are texting and driving and get into a crash you might want the other party to give some slack but most likely they will not. Irresponsibility also has consequences which could lead to jail time as well. It doesn’t matter if you knew the out outcome. He just didn’t want to pay the fee.

@@simonb2109 Your ignorance to theology shines as brightly as the fireball of the explosion.
@@lorddreagus7253to be fair, opinions on the abrahamic gods level of intervention varies wildly. This was just purely a horrible accident caused by neglect and lack of safety, doesn't require a magical deity.
People act like they intervene for the most minor things but then apparently sat out WW2..then in the mythology he murders countless humans, and Christians, Muslims and Hebrews all have different takes on the attitude of the same god.
A grasp on theology and mythology doesn't mean you would know any more about it than another, my knowledge of Zeus, hours, odin and mithras doesn't mean I can say if they were involved or not haha, any more than Yahweh. But it's a brutal, archaic petulant ruthless god, not sure you'd want him to if he was real
@@KaladinVegapunk The majority of Abrahamic religion is based on humanity's fall into sin, which makes humanity without deity inherently evil. What you interpret as ruthlessness is the inability of a divinely entirely good entity to coexist with evil. That being said, Allah, Yahweh, and the Trinity are not different forms of the same god because each are mutually exclusive.

There are humans there too, like us who live a peaceful life, things like this could happen without any sort of war conspiracy behind it.
Even if those are weapons, are you really that low to have a prejudice on a whole nation to be war related rather than seeing them as a group of people, actual human.

Was it grain storage
The glass from all the buildings exploding 😬😬
My Word ,
All those loved ones who perished that day and the ones who have to live with it 😥😥😥
My heart goes out to them all x
you can literately see the buildings are disintegrating when the blast hits, so surreal and apocalyptic to watch.
Omg this happened 1 day before I left that place here's the story me and my parents brother an sis were goin to visit family we were in two 6 seater vans and we stayed for 2 days and then left an got back home and we saw in the news about this 1 day later some of us started crying bc family lived over there including me I was crying to but luckily they survived we went back there 3 days later and saw everything obliterated it was so cruel we went back to there house were family was they were in the basement they said they heard the blast then saw it so they quickly ran to the basement and got food and water and the dogs.

Can't imagine how terrible hiroshima and nagasaki back then. Stay safe everyone
This is only the 2% of the Hiroshima. I could have imagine the Hiroshima bomb would be 20x larger than this
hiroshima wasnt that huge, it was hugely devastating but i wouldnt say 20x more, probably about 10, but i could be wrong i havent seen that much (Edit: when i say not that big i mean not that big compared to other nuclear weapons that have been made/are being held)
Around 15 times more powerful (this is 500 - 800 TNT-equivalent tons of AN detonating, Hiroshima was equivalent to 15,000 tons of TNT detonating). If this had been a Hiroshima-equivalent nuclear device detonating, everyone standing outside within about 2 kms would've suffered 3rd degree burns, every structure within 1.5 kms or so would've been severely damaged if not flattened, all of Beirut would've suffered some sort of structural damage from the blast wave.
...and Hiroshima is small potatoes compared to the 1 megaton nuclear armaments most developed countries have.
Alderite I can't even comprehend that. That's terrifying.
hiroshima was 15 kilotons, this was 1.2 kilotons, also, hiroshima was nuclear, so... not only they got hit by the blast, but also by incomprehensible heat and radiation, which was pretty much unknown at the time.
You know it's bad when people a hundred miles away can feel it.
Up to 160 miles away in Cyprus
Yep some of my family lived an hours flight away and they felt the shock of it
Shai Malka that must have been scary
@Amjad Jaradat they did and they are planning to send support to lebanon, via 4 hospitals near the border, if lebanon agrees via the un.
The biggest nuclear bomb ever tested was so powerful the pressure wave went around the earth two and a half times. Imagine that.
Sound travels faster through solids than through gas, if you're wondering why there's that chilling sound and the camera shakes before the shock wave.
the fact that that wasnt even nuclear or atomic is so scary
Wouldn't be surprised if people immediately thought it was. One POV was from a dashcam and the explosion was directly in front of them straight down the road and I'm sure the driver thought they were in the middle of a nuke blast

0:19 The ammonium nitrate didn't act "as an accelerant in a fire", it *was* the explosive! NH4NO3, ammonium nitrate, detonates (= explodes violently) under certain circumstances.
Well it might not accelerate the fire, but it certainly accelerates the severity of the situation.
@@thatmannamedmaxiodus2530 It certain accelerated the fire, even if it wasn't the cause. The amount of stored fertilizer (Ammonium Nitrate) was like a chain reaction until all of it reached critical mass= leading to the explosion you see here.
Missile
@@thatmannamedmaxiodus2530 Ammonium nitrate is, indeed, a fire accelerant because it decomposes into oxygen and nitrogen and water, or N2O and water (depending on the temperature) when heated, but that was not the problem here - the detonation of the ammonium nitrate itself was. And that is something completely different. In the first case, the AN provides oxygen (or indirectly via N2O) relatively slowly for something else burning (fireworks were mentioned), in the second case the entire AN, itself, decomposed within miliseconds, which is not by virtue of it being a fire accelerant.
Genuis in seize of a dumb
The oklahoma city federal building was destroyed by 2.5 tons of ammonium nitrate. This warehouse had 2,700 tons of it. Insane on every level.
The way the shockwave of the explosion pushes clouds around it is the coolest thing ever.
What the hell? Can’t believe they stored fireworks in the same warehouse. The stupidity of the people who were responsible for this is outstanding.
Welcome to the world of real life and dead end job work where idiots cut corners to save a few bucks with zero regards to safety.
To be fair, the ammonium nitrate was stored in another building from where the fireworks were. The buildings could have been owned by different companies and was unaware of each other’s existence.

weird, maybe an electrostatic pulse generated by the explossion?
It's fake
u can hear the jets in the sky the firework looking thng was from the first bomb then they dropped the moab funny how they dont show videos of people seeing the jets
That's because of rolling shutter 😐
Since the blast generated a seismic event equivalent to like a 3.something earthquake, I'd assume the shaking of the camera was that.
2 years later and this is still scary, you can see the buildings slightly evaporate and shatter as that humongous shockwave comes for everyone nearby
I live in jal dib which is located around 8 miles from Beirut port. When the explosion occurred , my whole building started to shake heavily and i thought that an Apocalypse was taking place but thanks God we were all safe . Peace and love from Beirut to all the world
wow. this POV is around ~0.5 miles from the port. if it was that bad 16 times further, i can't imagine what it was like for them

That shockwave is like something out of a film 🤯.

Hello ! May Allah protect and guide you to his light and happiness in this life and the hereafter, God bless, Ameen. Excuse me for giving a little presentation of Islam, because it is very misunderstood nowadays, especially on those « Antichrist's » times, where media and politics are mixed to distort history and truth. And terrorists (puppets of the Antichrist) who misinterpret verses, out of ignorance and political motivations, and take them out of historical context (just like radical atheists do by the way), don't help either. Thank you very much for your time.
Islam is an arabic word that means the Surrender to the One and Only God, our Creator, Protector, Provider, who gives us life and all that we have, we are safe and sound by his will and grace, we are His and to Him we return, and we have to thank him in this trial life by submitting to him by our free will, or later in the Day of judgment when it's too late to save our own skin. Islam was the original Religion descended to earth from heaven with Adam and Eve (peace and blessing be upon them) in the beginning of humanity. and was passed to people with the succession of the 124 000 prophets and 315 messengers of God to all nations and civilizations since, passing by Noah, Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Ismaël, Joseph, Moses, Aaron, Joshua, David, Solomon and Jesus (Peace and blessing be upon them) during the history of mankind, the last replaces and completes the previous, until the succession of the last messenger of God fourteen centuries ago, Muhammad (Peace and blessing be upon him) to complete the noble morals of all mankind, to bring humans and jinns out of darkness into light, and to purify people's religion and belief from corruption and polytheism, and return it to purity and true monotheism, like it was in the times of the prophets (Peace and blessing be upon them).
Many Religions that we know nowadays, at their beginning were true and under Islam, initiated by one of the prophets of God, but their original teachings, history and scriptures have been corrupted over time with falsification and polytheism, or lost and replaced with false ones. That's why Islam is the only Religion accepted by God nowadays, which consists in bearing witness that there is no god besides Allah (God in Aramaic, the original language of Jesus and the Gospel), and that Muhammad is His servant and messenger, just like Jesus and Moses and others are His servants and messengers. Never a messenger of God said he was God or literally son of God, it was the people after him who changed the words of God and corrupted the Religion. God is unique and absolute, He does not need to have a family and sons or to associate anyone else with His kingdom, He can simply create whatever He wants, everything belongs to Him, and to Him everything will return. Allah said in Surah Al-Mu’minun : “God has never begotten a son, nor is there any god besides Him. Otherwise, each god would have taken away what it has created, and some of them would have gained supremacy over others. Glory be to God, far beyond what they describe. The Knower of the hidden and the manifest. He is exalted, far above what they associate. (91-92 / Translated by ITANI).
Allah means the one and only God, the God of all prophets and creatures, the creator of the universe and mankind, and the Master of the Day of judgment, where our destiny, Hell or Paradise, is decided based on our faith and deeds in this trial life, and above all, Allah's mercy.
Allah said in Surah Al-Ikhlas : In the name of God, the Gracious, the Merciful.
Say, “He is God, the One. God, the Absolute. He begets not, nor was He begotten. And there is none comparable to Him.” (1-4 / Translated by ITANI).
Allah said in Surah An-Nisa : O FOLLOWERS of the Gospel! Do not overstep the bounds [of truth] in your religious beliefs, and do not say of God anything but the truth. The Christ Jesus, son of Mary, was but God's Apostle - [the fulfilment of] His promise which He had conveyed unto Mary - and a soul created by Him. Believe, then, in God and His apostles, and do not say, "[God is] a trinity". Desist [from this assertion] for your own good. God is but One God; utterly remote is He, in His glory, from having a son: unto Him belongs all that is in the heavens and all that is on earth; and none is as worthy of trust as God. Never did the Christ feel too proud to be God's servant, nor do the angels who are near unto Him. And those who feel too proud to serve Him and glory in their arrogance [should know that on Judgment Day] He will gather them all unto Himself: (171-172 / Translated by Muhammad Asad).
Allah the Most Merciful said in Surah Ali-Imran : Behold, the only [true] religion in the sight of God is [man's] self-surrender unto Him; and those who were vouchsafed revelation aforetime took, out of mutual jealousy, to divergent views [on this point] only after knowledge [thereof] had come unto them. But as for him who denies the truth of God's messages - behold, God is swift in reckoning!
Thus, [O Prophet,] if they argue with thee, say, "I have surrendered my whole being unto God, and [so have] all who follow me!" - and ask those who have been vouchsafed revelation aforetime, as well as all unlettered people, "Have you [too] surrendered yourselves unto Him?" And if they surrender themselves unto Him, they are on the right path; but if they turn away - behold, thy duty is no more than to deliver the message: for God sees all that is in [the hearts of] His creatures.
Verily, as for those who deny the truth of God's messages, and slay the prophets against all right, and slay people who enjoin equity - announce unto them a grievous chastisement.
It is they whose works shall come to nought both in this world and in the life to come; and they shall have none to succour them.
(19-22 / Translated by Muhammad Asad)..
