explosion of the month 7

According to the blurb accompanying the original video on YouTube, this blast was much larger than the navy mine clearance team intended. The black dust that appeared a few seconds after the initial explosion was the remnants of a sunk Second World War vessel caught up in the explosion, it is claimed. With that size of blast it's a wonder we didn't see any more exploding whales like last month.
