He stuffs a car full of dynamite, gets in, and blows it up. Car alarms were going off at our hotel...8 miles away.

Here's some more videos:

I'm not a film / video maker. It makes no difference to me if it's made using a digital camera or made using a camera which spools high speed film.

This is another reason why I did not state if it were filmed using a High Speed Camera or a High Speed Digital Camera. The topic is too confrontational to me.:D

My apologizes....I did not realize that you were the one the posted the video on Break.com (the notes on break.com site where the video was is what I was referring to...that's where it states "film") :D

Post by: Denholm on September 11, 2007, 12:59:56 PM: I didn't post the film, I found it when a squaddie of mine was posting a link to some moron literally blowing up an inter tube to see what it would do when it was filled with too much air.

Post by: Saxman on September 11, 2007, 02:41:57 PM: Yes, and also some shots from the perspective of a camera right at ground-zero of the blast, which got waporized along with the truck.
