Sadly, these pipeline "breaks" are seldom failures in the pipeline, but more often than not the result of intentional acts. Energy is a valuable commodity, and relatively easy to steal. There have been other such tragic events, and there will be more, as long as people are poor and there is gasoline flowing through their communities and accessible backcountry pipelines.
Inappropriate fashion comment: the dude's green and blue outfit is *awesome*.

 (for those who are Humor Impaired, the above comment is a joke and in no way intended to negate the human component and horror of this tragedy)

These are from other news sources, both are intersting as well, good composition on the second one.
As bad as the charred bodies are, at least they are dead. Can you imagine the ones who survived? Burn injuries are the most painful.  The bodies remind me of the ones I saw at Pompei many years ago. |

[quote=wolf]Second degree burn injuries are painful. Third degree are more likely to be fatal, but typically the victim feels no pain as all the nerve endings get burned off.
fortunately, long before these victims received the burns you see they died. the inhalation of the superheated gasses, very quickly killed them, then their bodies burned. btw....my coment on us being fuel was not intended as a coment on this picture. it is more of a comment on our place in the universe. |
