Dynamite blast, 1200 kg of dynamite.

[ziggyrockdust]

Pretty violent shot. I would have been run off. Must have stemmed the holes with powder.

[Dorisequador]

@ziggyrockdust pussy Just kidding lol  Ddynamight is the best invention ever for minning.

[JesseBoom700]

@ziggyrockdust haha, load it till you can see it! Less work to stem them. (joking)

[Ahuntsicspotter]

It will be fun iff the Extreme Make Over Home Edition do the same thing to my house situeted in Roxboro Quebec at 49 1e avenue nord.

[jmonnelly]

the cameraman is lucky to be alive.. and way to much dynamite for the size of rock...

[yomommasc]

@jmonnelly it was on a stand u fucking idiot it says it

[hmmsmellslikefish]

I like how the shrapnel are .....FUCKING BOULDERS!! nice blast!

[Sebastian3103]

you killed the camerastand ;-) oh my god !

[supermec131]

Camera protected with plastic or something

[mysticalwonder7]

Those bolders were kind of scary, don't you think?

[reidintheroom]

sucks for whoever was holding the camera.

[Hector49er]

Did you not notice that three comments down the guy who took the video said he used a camera stand?

[yomommasc]

@reidintheroom it was on a stand

[gepsel]

Dude, what a nice explosion

[Validole]

What is that in TNT equivalent?

[MTCLA]

Thats 1950kg of TNT.

[sjaaol]

pfff its not TNT. its dynamite. TNT is shit in mountens.

[dawson01912]

@MTCLA

That is completely incorrect. Even 60/40 dynamite doesn't come close to TNT RE or VOD. I hope you're not the engineer doing the blasting......*rolls eyes*

[MTCLA]

@dawson01912 Hi! I worked with dynamite for some years, but never with TNT. So the equivalence may be wrong. But the blast was 1200 kg of dynamite, you do the math if you'd like to.

[dawson01912]

@MTCLA

Of the top of my head, it is less than 1 metric ton of dynamite. Probably 900-950kgs.

[MTCLA]

@dawson01912 Well, argue all you want. It still was 1200 kg.

[dawson01912]

@MTCLA

Mean to say TNT. Actually, it would be about 1000kg TNT. You said it is equivalent to 1950kgs.....which is an oddly precise, yet incorrect number.

[MTCLA]

@dawson01912 Can't remember how I calculated the TNT equivalent, and I have never worked with TNT, it's just not common here in Norway. So 1000 kg of TNT might be right!

[MTCLA]

Haha, the camera were in a stand, yes. I would never stand there personally. :D

[igiuLoiraM]

But the camera must have been destroyed because of those giant boulders that hit it?

[MTCLA]

Only the camerastand was hit :)

[SparalOy]

you are one crazy guy, standing soo close to the blast ;D or did you have a camera stand?
