Jeez - hope no one was hurt?

Seems spooky how the front door shut itself before flying toward the firefighter!

Someone in the vid comments said something similar about curtains moving also.. But I didn't notice it.
Scary tho, glad no one was in it when it went up.

Was shown at work, can't remember if this was a delayed backdraught or something more going on. Very recent though, with more and more pumps fitted with CCTV there are more videos like this being released.

Think it was released to highlight the problems with scrap metal theft.. Apparently caused by folk nicking copper pipes from the empty house.. Shame one was the main gas supply to the boiler..
Honestly scared me to see it go up like that..
(edit) just saw the door moving and the curtains upstairs too just prior to the bang- very back-draughty.. But still scary. Also just realised it was in the wrong forum. Sorry- have been on nights.
