You can even see how thye caught the launch pad on fire when the fuel valves didn't close!

These people are so arrogant that they don't know what they don't know!

I can't stop thinking about how in those few seconds the turbopumps sucked several tons of fuel and oxidizer out of the tanks, mixed it, ignited it, and accelerated the exhaust to a few kilometers per second. And that mere movement of mass will send this machine away from our planet.
