London's Burning Bus Depot Fire

[@stevenkiel6452]

Diesel has to get bloody hot to ignite so in this scenario, I doubt the tanks would explode at all. Pretty much for dramatic effect other than anything else. Think about a internal combustion engine, it's the compression that causes diesel to ignite not a spark.

[@steuk6510]

If it heats up enough it can explode but very rare depending on Lot's off conditions how much there's in tank to oxygen to fuel fumes as it's London's burning it probably over dramatically

1:13 what music?

[@CallanMacAndie20]

0:55 - when there’s a shout & after they say the incident, do they say move or both?

[@lucythemoggy1970]

Hurry to the scene, Nick, Carole, Recall, and George!

Best characters imho

[@BlueTGM40]

@@retrogameru.k3725 ya, George and Recall were most long running characters since George was from season 1 onward and Recall was from season 2 to the beginning of season 14

At 4:28 was that the Diesel tanks exploding?

[@thequietestengine]

bit hard to say, given how long the fire was going for and the heat buildup, its possible? trying to think what else it could be because it was a hell of a bang to be anything else.

[@MetrobusChris]

@@thequietestengine it is strange I thought it was the engine blowing up but I doubt it might have been the batteries triggering the fuel tank to explode

[@MetrobusChris]

Could be the Batteries exploding?

[@thequietestengine]

Always got confused by this fire; she (Sarah, the girl who started the fire by accident) gets out of the bus, then.... she's in the bus shouting for help cos she's trapped?

[@trainman86trainstramsandmore]

She got in the other one

[@thequietestengine]

@@trainman86trainstramsandmore Oh I see it now, she got in the bus she thought Charlie was in. Sorry about that, my eyes were a bit blurry few times i watched this, cheers for explaining

[@trainman86trainstramsandmore]

@@thequietestengine its cool

[@steuk6510]

A battery could spark if it was bridged by a metal object causing a arc but Lot's off things are dramatic for program even petrol won't explore if it's a full tank it as to have a lot off fumes and oxygen before it does

[@geokingi]
