This video is in 4k and has slowmo replays. It's incredible.
Holy crap. The lebanese just can't get a break can they?
That really is like something from a movie.
Lebanon's finance minister has resigned from his position following protests and the explosion in Beirut.

Easy way out.
Well, the people want them out. If they don't people, would say they're clinging to power. Damned if you do and damned if you don't.
Interesting read, thanks
1:10 - closest video taken to the actual explosion site that I have yet seen, inside the port itself & right across the water from the building that remained standing (video is from the north-ish, I think).
You could apply that as a lazy conclusion to any event in human history.
Holy shit! That was terrifying to watch!
Did you spell capitalism wrong?
Wow!!! All those people in the video!
I know. Nobody could have imagined a blast like that happening so they had to feel completely safe.Wow!!! All those people in the video!
And be fairly accurate.
I’ve never seen something so big captured on camera like this before. Clearly we have footage of 9/11 or the Tsunami in 2006, but not on such a personal level. Dozens of different angles from people just going about their daily lives.
On the other hand, that is big brother accomplishment
Those taking the video survived, thankfully...
Christ, that car at 1:55. Can you imagine driving down the road and seeing that?
Or being that guy in the hospital as his wife is in the middle of labour.

The feck is happening there?!
Destroying any remaining evidence I guess.
It's in an oil and tires warehouse. No one injured and no explosion danger according to the Lebanese Red Cross, which is good I guess.

takes some balls to be standing in the open filming it after what happened last time

Absolutely crazy stuff.
Epilogue:
Incredible stuff - what gets me about it is that the nuclear explosion at Hiroshima was roughly 20 times more powerful. Hard to comprehend.
