  • We’ve all seen action stars walk away from ridiculous explosions in movies. Here, Columbia University explosives engineer Rodger Cornell rates 10 movie explosion scenes based on how realistic they are.
    We look at scenes from action and adventure movies like “Indiana Jones,” “Transformers,” “Django Unchained,” “X-Men,” “The Dark Knight,” “Desperado,” and more. How plausible are these scenes in real life? Are they scientifically accurate? Let's find out.

    So real explosions are:
    - Short
    - Loud crack
    - Fireball that's about 30% larger than explosive but lasts like half a second.
    - Shock wave doesn't throw you, instead basically knocks you down.
    - Shock wave will likely rupture your lungs.
    - Ears and Lungs are affected most
    - If you blow up a house fireballs will be about 1-2 seconds long. There will be small fires around.
    - Most dangerous thing is fragmentation that will practically blend you.
    Notes:
    - Shooting a gas tank will not make it explode
    - Pulling a pin with your teeth will basically be very awkward and embarrassing because it's very tough. May break your teeth.

      Instant. Not short. Instant.
      "- Loud crack
      "
      Yes.
      "- Fireball that's about 30% larger than explosive but lasts like half a second."
      No, an instant shockwave and then all you see is the smoke. The fireball is too fast to see except occasionally.
      "- Shock wave doesn't throw you, instead basically knocks you down."
      No, it turns your body into a bunch of unrecognizable pieces that simply fall down.
      "- Shock wave will likely rupture your lungs.
      "
      If it doesn't instantly kill you... Which it most likely will...
      "- Ears and Lungs are affected most

      And the rest of your body which is turned into... I don't even know... A bunch of pieces...
      "- If you blow up a house fireballs will be about 1-2 seconds long. There will be small fires around.
      "
      If it's Gasoline then it will just burn down very quick. If you are talking about HE then no, the house will instantly shatter into a billion pieces. There won't be a fireball. Just smoke and fragments everywhere.

      It's only impossible in our own universe, but judging things based on the internal consistency and internal rules and logic of a piece of fiction makes a lot of sense. It just depends on which parts they telegraph as being "not like logic in our world". There's no real reason why explosions would work any differently in, say, X-men, but they do make clear that the way Wolverine works isn't like in our world, i.e. he regenerates. So then it's a matter of taking that internal logic into account.

      I have no faith in humanity if you can’t even navigate the basic elements of the plot in “the Last Crusade” it’s not complicated. Go watch the movie again.
      Sr. was healed from his wounds in the temple. After he crossed the seal (warned by the knight) the eternal life is no longer possible. Since Henry senior (Sean Connery) was clearly healed from his wounds he just becomes a normal healthy man walking out of the tomb. You are not under divine protection when you don’t follow the simple rules the movie stated. Thus they are both mortal again. Any subsequent injury could be fatal.

    The Dark Knight explosion was actually real though.

    One thing he didn't mention is that all these explosions seem to be gasoline/petrol based. Gas explosions tend to look bigger and scarier because of that immense fireball they create, but they really aren't that dangerous to structures. Explosions created by dynamite like in Django Unchained or demolition charges like in The Dark Knight don't create that fireball, and military carpet bombs like in Transformers DEFINITELY don't. Movies just use those sort of gasoline explosions because they look cooler and they're cheaper.

      I tried to burn some (25ml) diesel in a crucible as a disposal method since you're not allowed to pour it in the waste or down a drain and my car is petrol.
      Bunsen burner blue flame on the top for 15 seconds did not ignite it.
      Vodka ignites more easily.
      I had to heat it underneath for 20 seconds or so until it started to fume, them heat the to which caught fire. Pulled the flame away and the diesel fire went out.
      So added heat to the top again for another 10-15 seconds. Finally it was able to self sustain. I know it's because there oxygen supply wasn't good since it's in a small metal cup, but still surprising.
      It did burn for about an hour though, which vodka does not.
      Also unhappy that it left a thick black sludge to dispose of.
      Currently planning on adding it to roofing tar.

      Probably propane in most cases, and not really a detonation. Just a large accumulation of propane set on fire to create a huge fireball. From what I've seen of grenades, mines and such they produce no fireball at all. Gasoline would produce a thick black smoke almost immediately, and would probably be illegal due to the pollution factor.

    I'm hoping you could do a review of explosions in tunnels, in movies, sometime. I've seen a lot of movies get this way wrong many times.
    I was with some people (I've long since forgotten and lost track of) who liked to urban explore in the tunnels along the Mississippi river back in the 1980s.
    One of the people had placed an explosive in a brick wall, hoping to widen the way around it.
    Every one waited around a corner about 100 yards down the tunnel.
    When the blast went off everyone instantly and involuntarily sat on the ground. Just all at once everyone's legs just went limp.
    The shock wave traveling along the tunnel was enough to cause the involuntary sit on the ground response, that I've never seen any movie ever get right.
