Well Gary bob.. This paticular well was a shallow gas well that blew out on us.. During the actual cementing of the long string we lost returns while still pumping the tail slurry. After we were done and moving off location it. Blew.. It's a horrific sound almost like a jet. The only thing saving it from starting on fire is It was blowing wet with a mixture of water and gas.. Sorry you weren't too impressed by the sound, but I never want to be in a situation like this ever again..

The guy with the camera is standing way too close, the next thing you can see when this happens is a big explosion from the gas that's coming out and pushing that fluid the way it is in the video.
