High Definition - Explosion in Toronto Propane Depot - High Quality footage

Back


Sunshine Propane Depot Exploded in Toronto in the middle of the night on August 10, 2008. I was awoken at about 3:50 am to what I thought was thunder (there was lightening in the area). It turns out it was a huge propane explosion! You can see what I believe to be a piece of the propane tanker truck exploding into the air at around the 2:50 minute mark. I have since learned this piece landed in the Mt. Sinai Cemetery nearby - it was a huge chunk of metal! Be sure to watch the "high quality" stream Video taken approximately 8 km from the fire scene. Video taken on a Canon HV20 HD Camcorder. Unfortunately, I have since learned two people died - one employee of Sunshine Propane and one firefighter. My thoughts go out to their family and friends. Almost 20,000 people live in the area of the explosion and were evacuated. (Murray St. - Latitude: 43°43'57.25"N Longitude: 79°28'24.59"W). I apologize for the REALLY cheezy commentary - nothing this exciting happens in Toronto. The events were spectacular and yet very sad at the same time.
