It was interesting to watch this knowing that no one was injured.

That's one heck of an explosion! I had to watch that video a few times, and did i spot something leaking from the sides?

Yeah, I saw that to, looked like leaking for sure. Funny, saw a quote this morning, Elon Musk said 2 years ago that this company was crazy, they use Russian engines built in the 60s for these rockets.

Nothing wrong with 60s tech: It got man to the moon.

That's funny, not 60s tech, actually built in the 60s!
