SOYUZ EXPLOSION

[LechAleksander]

"oh my god oh my god i thought i'm gona die" funny hysteric reaction. Russians reacted other way: watch?v=wMY-zfpV9HU

[lenny820]

the dude talking sounds like jedward

[Embraer091]

LOL,.... They did everything right... They only forgot to do one thing.... To put fuel in the tank...

[hazael222]

weaver:i cant stop it

woods:shit!!!!!

bowman:mason take that valkyre

(mason destroy the rocket)

woods:uuoooooooahhh

bowman:ou nigga

weaver:russians fire works are the best

[FreeYourMind911]

Yankies are just pissed of und jalous of shuttled down cosmic program ^^ :DDD

[granddad2002]

nothing more sobering when a rocket goes critical. These vehicles fly by means of a controlled explosion... wait til you see an orion system going into orbit.

[DumbYankies]

Would all the russian trolls stop crapping on about soyuz safety, just as many soyuz missions have ended with total loss of crew as have shuttle missions. The first soyuz mission killed its one pilot and another in 71 killed its three man crew. 2 missions. The same as challenger and columbia. The difference is the shuttle carries 7 crew, not 3 cosmonauts in a broom closet.

[altfactor]

From the people who brought you "IRBM Muck-Up" and "ICBM Muck-Up".

In a world where old school rockets still rule.....

"Soyuz Muck-Up!"

Be Glad This Was Unmanned!

Rated PG-13 for Pretty Gross After Thirteen seconds!

[pulsejet1]

This is not a Soyuz flight. This is a satellite.

And all countries w/space programs have had their problems. If there are any that haven't...they will.

[DreadTRex]

you may be right but still Russia has much more screw ups than the usa

[predatortheme]

this... rocket is bringing up a satelite. not a human...........

and in spaceflight its 1000 times safer then you walking to the next supermarket to buy a coke

you could die easier on the way by getting hit by a car or something else

[tlages]

The tlages space program: 0 failures. (0 launches but hey)

[SuperCrazyJunk]

the first line were it sais not to fly in rockets is stupid, the soyuz rockets are the most reliable rockets around the Russians have been using the same concept since yuri gagarin

[ezayinthahood]

BLOW IT MASON!, NOW!!!

[mircea1910]

fookin'ell

[EdouardDubois]

Was someone clapping..?

[chanctonbury63]

@EdouardDubois Yeah. The guy from NASA.

[TheAlex101070]

Why Russians speak in english???

[chanctonbury63]

@TheAlex101070 Cos they are English.

[chanctonbury63]

@chanctonbury63 Who?

[chanctonbury63]

@TheAlex101070 Because they are English not Russian.

[RescGT777]

when did happen?

[Coffeeandasmoke]

Damn... talk about catastrophic failure.

[brentsrx7]

kaputski

[nagasako7]

Implying dying a SPACE craft isn't awesome. You rather die old, with dementia with poo in your diapers?

Or strapped to tons of liquid hydrogen going faster than the speed of sound.

[senoritafish]

Well... that almost never happens with N.A.S.A don't get me wrong they had stuff like challenger but a lot less then their space agency

[lukebccb]

@senoritafish: doesn't happen with nasa? Where'd you come up with that one? Did you make it up as it's contrary to to the reality of some of the spectacular failures nasa had in the pre-shuttle days.



[Crossroadsinc]

Fookin ell!

FOOKIN ELL!

[adrastea99]

Rocket was unmanned....

[chanctonbury63]

@adrastea99 Certainly was after the explosion...

[adrastea99]

@chanctonbury63

So was the challenger

[Guardian9191]

Bloody hel the explosion is HUGE!

[Splinter48708]

It sounded like the engines cut out right after passing through the cloud. Certainly a reason for a crash.

[iradeourum]

exploded rocket is not Soyuz. That was Proton, 2008. Author must know that Soyuz has almost never failed. One time the launch escape system was activated.

[rsynnott]

No, this is a Soyuz. Soyuz failures are indeed very rare, and there's never been a crew fatality on launch (though there have been two rocket failures). This is an unmanned Soyuz-U; one of the engines failed to start, causing it to destabilise and fall. There was one ground fatality. AFAIK there are no videos available of Proton failure; there hasn't been a Proton explosion since fall of Soviet Union.

[iradeourum]

You're right, you know. I dig deeper and so it is.

[Camerameister]

Yep: I stand corrected. It is an unmanned Soyuz.

Where the confusion exists is that it does not have the usual Soyuz nose cap which is why I thought it was a Proton.

[artwleb]

One of the 4 block strap ons detached just after liftoff. You can see it in the video with lox being vented.

[ArbiterNL]

@rsynnott There have been 2 crew fatality's, soyuz 1 and soyuz 11. Now offcourse they were re-entry failures, but still, mission fatality's.

[Drpepper687]

Man that was awesome! If I saw that thing coming back down I would have been like a little kid waiting for the explosion!

[egor1908]

Ебучий фэйк, автору по голове настучать надо!

[id770522]

Фигня, это, разве что, съемки взрыва Союза в Голливуде, ни одного русского слова

[AmberJaguar]

stupid idiots it's not soyuz. does russian language sounds on this vid? also soyuz never had been crashed

[nathanmoeller]

First part is correct. Second part is not.  It's Russian Proton rocket, and Soyuz craft have indeed crashed. The very first one crashed to Earth killing the cosmonaut on board when the parachutes didn't deploy.

[Camerameister]

Komarov's accident was not the fault of the Soyuz booster.

[nathanmoeller]

And? I didn't claim that it was. Amber said a Soyuz has never crashed. She wasn't specific about the booster, modules, etc.

[Camerameister]

You certainly inferred it:

"The very first one crashed to Earth killing the cosmonaut on board when the parachutes didn't deploy. "

!700 successful launches for Soyuz. No other rocket has ever managed that.

[morekew]

Stomme ''communisten'', kunnen werkelijk niets fatsoenlijks maken, vroeger niet en nu nog niet.

[artwleb]

When the engines shutdown abruptly the loss of sound should have alerted them to be cautious and not surprised. Amateurs.

[Lovememore2010]

Russians droped nuclear bomb on the Europa!!!

[ArsentyevAndrey]

как же так?

[Barbarian216]

Awesome fireball and concussion, would have been nice if someone had brought some marshmallows for roasting!

[BigKwell]

Very expensive lawn dart.

[ESW01]

Лол. Если на землю будет падать метеорит, все также будут снимать и апплодировать

[Blabist]

I know ukrainian!

[MRCHNK]

подстава. звук был одновременно со взрывом.

[Shmacktop]

где одновременно-то? 2 секунды задержка.

[handmadeonair]

вам песдес американчеги

[tankedline]

leave it to the americans?......

[sigmasquadleader]

We've had our fair share, we just didn't cover up as much as they did during the Cold War.

[cekurity]

Тебя найдут и убьют!

[DevilDog016]

Ooooh Snap!!!

I bet something did snap inside the Soyuz xD

Thank God there was no crew in it.

[el95barto]

heeeeeeeeeeeelllllllllpppppppp­pppppppp i'm scaaaaaarrrrrreeeeeeeeeddddddd­dddd

[Membrane556]

That failure would not have killed a crew on a manned soyuz rocket.

They would have fired the LAS at around :23 when that right booster's engine failed which would have pulled the soyuz vehicle from the rocket.

Now on a vehicle with cross plumbed engines like a Shuttle,Saturn or Falcon 9 the vehicle would have either done an RTLS or TAL abort in the case of the shuttle, or even continued on the orbit in the case of the Saturn both versions and Falcon 9.

[csengeri]

I imagine how loud can be that explosion lol.

At the beginning of August there was a lighnting storm at night I wanted to take photos and opened the window just before THe lightning struck nearby. The sound came directly into my ears and I felt I am going to pee...and that was 'JUST A BOLT OF LIGHTNING'.

[legion2]

in the USSR they would have been rounded up and shot and all record of this event erased

[daboohelix]

ah.....what a lost

[ROYALNOZGUL]

Wow, this was awesome, I felt like I was watching Cloverfield. >:D

[AI009]

Russian fireworks are the best in the world :P

[segregator236]

Oh yeah, but this particular firework is a bit expensive...lol

[vladimirstanislav]

@AI009

nah American is way better remember space shuttle challenger? yeah several stupid Americans died in that one...yeah okay those Americans are worthless but the explosion is great right?

[FreeYourMind911]

@AI009

[Xaveq]

Wow the explosion may be even stronger than daylight. Dude, if you would get light in your eyes, this immense, you would go blind forever!!!

[segregator236]

Yeah. Try to bring sunglasses next time. :)

[Xaveq]

I will! xD

[segregator236]

And some sunscreen.

[rawky06]

its like the last bonfire i went to

[segregator236]

lol

[bakerskate411]

why does it have so many spark lookin things, must be the rocket fuel

[segregator236]

Yup. Pieces of burning fragments.

[tornadomad]

ouch

[VykloSS]

nice as always littl'brother !!

[segregator236]

lol

[segregator236]

Not this one. I'm not part of ESA.

[CaptainCool07]

when was this?

[segregator236]

Probably a few decades back.

[csengeri]

This is frightening and awesome at once! Poor people who designed this rocket!

[segregator236]

Reminds me of some of my failed homemade rockets.

[csengeri]

You build rockets? What do you use for them?

[segregator236]

I build them for fun.

[csengeri]

Could you make me one?

[segregator236]

Well, I'm sorry I can't mail one to you, but I can teach you to.

[despair6]

lol wtf?

[segregator236]

Yeah, that's pretty much what the scientists thought after that.

[ikmal017]

are there any people in it? & Wow it looks like a nuclear explosion!

[segregator236]

No. As said in the description, this was carrying a Fonton M-1 satellite.
