If I recall correctly there was a devastating blast in the US where many lost their lives around the time of the second world war. A ship docked in port that was carrying munitions exploded, I think I read it was one of the largest non-nuclear explosions ever recorded???

I think it was about 3.5 on the Richter scale Ant. I just heard from a buddy that lives in Limassol. He heard the bang and his light fixings swayed around. That would be a bit like me hearing an explosion in Birmingham in Southampton.

The problem isn't what people don't know, it's what they know that just ain't so.

Believe NOTHING anyones says or writes unless you witness it yourself and even then your eyes can deceive you

None of this "the enemy of my enemy is my friend" crap it just means i have at least two enemies!

 

There is only one opinion i listen to ,its mine and its ALWAYS right even when its wrong

 

Its far easier to curse the darkness than light one candle

Grangers law : anything i say will  turn out the opposite or not happen at all!

THANK YOU GOOGLE

The Tunguska Meteor: This was a huge explosion in Russia close the Tunguska River of Podkamennaya. It had the comparable effect of a 300-315 dB 1000-mega-ton bomb. This is often regarded as the loudest one-time event in history.

Trump will probably blame it on a kids prank gone wrong!! - based on the "The Accident", a recent TV production starring Sarah Lancashire & Pauline Quirke??

FBI & CIA probably behind it though, with no little support from our very own MI6!!
