11 million lbs of rocket fuel... That sucked.

Second largest non-nuclear explosion ever caused by humans (Fairfax explosion was, ahem, a little bit larger).

Was caused by a ruptured gas main that caught fire.

2 People died... a man in a wheelchair that couldn't get out in time, and Roy Westerfield, the man who opted to stay behind (he had polio) to call the authorities to warn them.

I'M A BIGGER GEEK! =3
