absolutely shocking videos on twitter if you search #tianjin, 21 tons of TNT blew up in a factory

according to twitter martial law has been declared in the area it happened and people and being urged to donate blood

so far it's being reported that 7 people are dead and hundreds injured but i expect the death toll to increase a LOT

Damnnnn, have a bad feeling the death toll is going to rise so much over the next couple of hours.

That looks absolutely insane. I'm very curious as to the circumstances why this happened but my god. The conspiracy theorists are absolutely going to eat this up too.

[Absently]

oh my god, that is so crazy. all those poor people that video is so shocking too... they look so far away and that awful noise... wow. i'm in shock.

wow that looks terrible, does it say what kind of factory?

Not sure, but apparently it was a shipment of 21 tons of TNT, plus Tianjin is a port city so it might've just been a holding area.

It will take days to put that out. Insane explosion.
