A lot of the smoke cloud goes straight up. Does that mean the bomb buried before detonation? Most of those looked like single bombs. Would that by 2000# typically? Ouch. I'd bet they can fuze them differently, need dependent. Prox, delay, point. Probably delay. Never got to see one dropped, but there was an unexploded one chilling underneath an Agricultural college in Mosul. Right off the back end of FOB Courage. |

It seems that the consensus is to laugh and say "Holy shit" when seeing one go off in person.  We had old C-4 to get rid of in Iraq, so we put it all in a big ass Folgers coffee can, and lit that fucker off. Must have been about 10 bricks. Doesn't matter the size of the explosion. The reaction is always the same.
