Series of explosions at ArcelorMittal Dofasco on Christmas Day release emissions into the air

[@NeoRipshaft]

Oh no way - when I was working there I heard people talking about how any moisture would cause catastrophic explosions, and was thinking "I dunno it can't be THAT bad...".... but nope, definitely can be that bad! lol also that lady speaking through the window is a beautiful example of Hamiltonians haha, it's a fun city.

Nashville bombed too?

[@jackrussell680]

Worked in an aluminum foundry and people outside the forging dept, not knowing better would throw pop bottles with liquid still in them into scrap bins and we had small explosions all the time. Pretty dangerous work

[@ChrisGleasoncpgdba]

We always plan work like this Christmas day

[@johns5586]

One of the guys I work with was 50ft away in the casthouse when this happened. Scary stuff

[@glendapass4613]

Why is no one talking about a pipe line in Nevada I think it was or the Baltimore gas and electric building blowing up, and now this???? Only Nashville is mentioned. OKAY call me a conspiracy nut but geez!

[@KravMike08]

Ok Your a conspiracy but.... Coincidence yes but that's all it is....

[@johnnybanana8562]

I'm in Nebraska, and we had a natural gas line explode also.

[@KravMike08]

@@johnnybanana8562 when??? Last night??? Last month??? Last year???? Last decade??? And what are the circumstances behind it??? Was it a suicide bomb like in Nashville??? Or was it a construction accident like BG&E in Baltimore???

[@sonnyroy497]

In Nebraska Dec. 24 also in Egypt Dec. 25 and Baltimore, and of course Nashville.

[@KravMike08]

Let's not forget the volcano in Hawaii...... Also Italy

[@Cal99ers]

I was told it was mostly when snow comes in through the roof holes

[@petersrightbut8297]

Where is this? Country? Region? State? Town? Province? Planet?

[@Cal99ers]

Hammertown lives upto it's name.

[@liselamoureux888]

Looks like Beruit lebonon explosion? Same colored cloud. Very interesting

[@davidgreczkowski5724]

this is nothing like beruit, completely 2 different types of explosions, this is what happens when water or liquid gets mixed w molten steel

[@davidlineberry622]

Na na na this is what happens when ya dump molten iron/slag/steel on top of water.

[@DrPriiime]

This is a major problem

[@hvalour1]

A good thing about the paris accord, getting this sort of stuff to the third world.
