Crazy.
I used to work in explosives research at the Nobel factory, west of Melbourne. All processing units never contained more than a ton of explosive at any one time and each unit was surrounded by a very solid earthen wall designed to direct any explosive shock-wave upward. Now that was back in the fifties. We knew about explosive safety then - what has happened since?
