This stuff's always scary, kind of reminds of an incident I experienced about 10 years ago.

I was watching TV one night and the whole house shuddered like a juggernaut had gone past, but being a narrow side street this wasn't possible and when I looked out front there was nothing but just a few neighbours looking as well. About 5 mins later, there was the biggest explosion I'd ever heard and I was lucky that the windows didn't blow in. Again I ran in the street and car alarms and house alarms were going off and dogs barking and people in the street and yet nothing! Then I thought of the garden and dashed there and ****, two houses behind me had literally had their back halves blown off and the flames were two stories high. To cut a long story short, the fire brigade soon arrived and evacuated the whole street and after the fire was put out, it was discovered the next day that a gas cylinder used for BBQ's had caused the minor explosion before hitting the gas in the house and was the work of vandals. The devastation the next day was a shock as the two house were 70% destroyed and a whole load of others damaged with broken windows and burn marks on the houses, amazingly nobody died as the two houses were empty at the time. To this day, I'm paranoid where gas safety is concerned, as I would've never believed that a small gas explosion could've caused so much damage.
