Propane explosion in collingdale PA. scully propane 9-1-10

[goldcommando329]

I saw the flames and some of the tanks shoot over the tree line from Chester Pike.

[MLBxSaYhi2JESUS]

i cant belive that last year on my first day of school i had to say an extra hour because of this

[lincolngirl31]

Wow wheres the fire Dep. LOL every body just looking call 911 crazy people.

[kdorrin2]

I was on that second truck that pulled up ! Scary stuff, on the ride up I was praying.

[Raffomat]

Sounds kinda happy new year fireworks ;)

[PatricioBridges]

Awesome. I always wondered what a propane tank would sound like if it caught fire and blew up. Now I know.

[kasteman1]

If anyone has seen a propane fire of this magnitude, they know that this turns an ordinary BBQ grill keg into a ballistic missile in .000001 seconds. Look at the other YouTube clips of similar fires. People in the Toronto area were wondering what the giant sparks zinging in all directions was from, some couldn't believe it even with their own two eyes.

[Bartman1764]

i was there man it was heptic

[PARAD0X1975]

Jcb you're a fucking nerd! You'd more than likely drop your phone and hide in the corner faggot.

[palongee1]

It does remind me of a mortar/artillery rain down!

[palongee1]

It would suck to be the IC on that call:)

[jcb1972]

Step 1. Tap camera app on iphone screen.

Step 2. Wait for app to open

Step 3. Wait about 2 seconds then rotate iphone to landscape mode.

Step 4. Confirm you are in landscape mode.

Step 5. Record video.

[Airforcefd]

Every want to know what a mortar/RPG attack sounds like... This sums it up real well. (OIF '06 FF Vet)

[SgtSMOKE78]

im a FF and let me tell you, i think i just put a permanant crease in my computer chair from my a**hole drawing up! this is some scary sh**!

[ncenr8]

yea no @#$%

[SmokeEagle95]

We had a remarkably similar fire where I live, Kelowna, British Columbia, just a few weeks ago. While this made for some good video, IMHO (as a former firefighter) it was shot from WAY TOO CLOSE! Especially with explosions of (unknown at the time) that magnitude/frequency! The ?property owner (seen opening the gate) is NUTS to get that close! NEVER TURN YOUR BACK ON A FIRE or otherwise compromise your line of sight to it!!

[mada223]

@mamch88 ...and we lost all our fuckin' antiques.

[shzntt]

I work at the Walgreens down the street from there.

[babybyotch89]

Luckily no one was killed and I agree this business shouldn't be in a residential neighborhood. I'm glad i don't live close to there im on the other side of chester pike lol

[tombo032309]

@babybyotch89 the blast would have destroyed a 2 mile radius

[boygenius7]

this is was some krazy shyt. Sounds like a Michael Bay movie. Im glad no one was injured.

[blinko656]

Nice footage..

[saulsgirl31]

that was some scary shit i live 6 blocks from there

[TheSalazar30]

Could you feel the heat from there?? It seams pretty close..

[Squirtgoes]

I counted 144 explosions in this video,,,,, Nice footage dude

[PeaceSalaam]

I’m glad none was killed, I’m sure their insurance will pay for the damages caused, but seriously I think the township shouldn’t allow businesses like Scully located in residential neighborhood it is too dangerous; it could have been a catastrophe.

[iJandiN2727]

Did the Crossing Gates get Damaged.

[Abascabanochies]

You are insane. I'd be taken that bitch to Action news.

[dampman14]

thank goodness for the iphone ... good quality

[getmoney915]

My freind's son work's for Scully's,thank god he was out on a run with one of there truck's and not at the yard....

[eddocjr]

Dude you crazy for being that close.....great video though!

[starysky17]

Oh my gosh this is really bad. I hope no one was hurt.

[tradernorton05]

hahah, this is just another day in Iraq.

Nothing to get excited about.

[Synsofgawd]

brave footage, my cousin came back from that fire soot and wet

[pricebc]

Great footage. One should be careful at such events. Youtubers please consider your safety when these things happen. The owner of the storage company is seen calmly opening up his gates to allow fire/rescue to access his property. Sadly he and many others lost a great deal.

[cobralite]

@pricebc actually i would have to say that is a firefighter bc of the two way radio hence the black radio strap

[mk7mk77]

Nice footage check that propane tank @ 4:41 landing on the blue house roof top. I was actually chating with 2 FB freinds @ this time. They live right there, told them I would evac 2 block radious. Hope there ok. 1 of those 3 guys working there KNOWS what happened. Looks like us Youtubers got the MEDIA BEAT we have them out numbered. Great footage luch76.

[baxter6213]

i live in collingdale and im also a firefighter in darby township this is how i woke up yesterday, great job was done by by the firefighters of the collingdale fire companys

[paschiala]

absolutely insane! i'm really glad i decided to go to work yesterday. i live about a 1/2 mile from scully so i probably would have had a stroke. hope everyone is okay. :(

[dagwoody]

Nice footage, You can work in my news van anytime! XoXo Cecliy Tynan

[Ermeig]

This happened so close to my house, and I didn't even notice. I walked outside to go to piano and it smelled funny :P

[HJE72675]

[JPowell712]

I could hear these explosions all the way up in Clifton Heights I knew it was bad

[leviathant]

Wow, nice job. Any idea what got launched into the air at 4:34?

[CapCityJedi]

@leviathant It was a propane tank, and the house it hit was roughly 75 yards or more from the explosion

[LaJaDiSc]

Evacuation of a 5 block radius, you're pretty brave to capture the footage, God bless Scully's.

I'm up in Secane.

[Taima]

[thenykafanfan123]
