Hi OP. If you are using a drone you could make a DEM of that location to gain more info such as volume, depth etc for your research.
Someone mentioned that the set up could be made to explode at once. That will be a clear terrorist attack and no longer an accident. To set up dynamites require careful connection of NonEL or other times with no delay planned.
It may be worth noting that at a distance, slight delay in explosion won't be really noticeable because of echo and travel of sound/ vibration

Where did you buy the drone.

And how much is it.

I want to buy one.

God bless you , i dont know how ppl will believe that a dynamite no matter how powerful will excavate such amount of earth , secondly they have not shown us the left over of the exploded vehicle , at least there should be some remnants from the exploded vehicle
My own take on this issue is that that was a meteor that hit Nigeria , it is not an unusual thing and even common in some countries , this particular one was even observed in Usa but they couldn't pinpoint the actual place it landed and they even reported that a meteor landed on earth.

https://www.ibtimes.com/us-residents-watch-asteroid-hits-earth-creates-bright-fireball-event-2947635

"Residents from various states in the U.S. spotted a bright fireball streaking across the night sky. Based on eyewitness reports, the fireball was most likely caused by a small asteroid colliding with Earth and burning up in the atmosphere.

According to the data gathered by the American Meteor Society, the incident occurred on March 25 at around 10:40 p.m. EDT. In total, the organization received seven eyewitness reports from different individuals."

As noted in the reports, the recent fireball event was spotted by residents from different states in the U.S. such as Pennsylvania, Massachusetts and New York. Many of them noted that the fireball appeared brightly in the sky.

A resident named Lee R. from Langhorne, Pennsylvania stated that the fireball appeared to have changed colors. Unfortunately, since it passed through clouds, he did not see the other colors of the cosmic object.

An eyewitness from Pennsylvania named Dan D. reported that he saw how the fireball changed colors. He believed this occurred when the object entered Earth’s atmosphere."

please take note of the time , this was exactly the same time the explosion occurred in nigeria , it was early morning time in Nigeria


it is obvious the story the police are giving doesn't add up


You should know by now that most nigerians can't think for themselves. Whatever they are told by politicians the automatically believe without reasoning what they where told. That is why we are where we are today as I nation

High velocity bombs rarely leaves fires behind after the initial explosion flash rather the release hot gases that scorch things and you can see that some of the land was scorched , bombs that leave fire trails are called incendiary bombs and they are designed using either Naphthalene or magnesium depending on the type of fire the want it to fuel .

Maybe you stop wasting your time explaining things to people who don't wanna learn. Rock blasting dynamite does not have a power of its own. Like you righly said, it has to be cooked i.e other ingredients have to be added to it be you (blast master) can get a desires taste (impact).

First of you need to drill a hole in the rock (6m or as directed by the BM), you fill each hole with minimum of 33mm dynamite sticks, you need to trench/connects the sticks with curtex (a highly flammable wire), you need to carefully choke/cover the holes and then link the curtex to a detonator.

You will need a about 600 10m deep holes filled with 5 33m dynamite with less than a metre interval to get a degree of kiloton that would create this crater..

I've had to mischievously throw a stick of dynamite (stone blasting) into a burning fire before and it simply went "kpoof" ... like a match stick.

Except this was a couple of VBIED's, I strongly suspect a 30,000km/hr moving meteorite.

You can't seriously be arguing that dynamites cannot explode on transit and cause a deep and wide crater after reading the link I posted to you of a similar incident that happened in the US.
Re: Aerial Pictures Of Akure Explosion by mega13(m): 9:20am On Mar 29, 2020
In view of the above Post blast scene , I suggest that a discreet investigation should be establish to ascertain if the aforesaid explosive were professionally loaded inline with the explosive act and regulations, this became necessary because some explosive earn users as at today are used to shortcuts and thereby violates the rules of engagement simply because they claimed they know top ranking Officer's whom might have condescended to their bargaining power to the detriment of their subordinates ( field workers)& the society in general.
The point I'm trying to prove here is that, before explosive is conveyed from point( A to point B) they are expected to be premorp by the Office of Ministry of Mines and Power in collaboration with the Police Anti Bomb Squad also know as EOD Explosive Ordinance Disposal which will be satisfied okay before any further action. Today's Ministry of Mines and Power has failed the safety and security posited in her capacity to function ultimately, because majority amongst themselves are corrupt. Meanwhile, some unit Commander's attached to the EOD are not left out of the hook because haven't noticed the irregularities in the forgoing especially in the areas of logistics and storage have the power to commence on the activation of such movement.
Another aspect is that the Investigator should be able to know if caps were loaded alongside the Explosives which might be the reason for such uncontrollable explosion, though a strand of Nitroglycerin can be burned without explosion but not when Cap is conveyed in same container.
The lapse in in this case it isn't far from human error.

If it was a signature truck bomb the trained eye will immediately know from the explosion it will cause around. The fiery destruction will be a telltale sign. There's no explosion in this instance, just a very powerful crash.

all these people saying meteorite up and down are probably paid by the government to deceive us.
Any thinking human with a functioning neuron will obviously know that this is a bomb!!!
whoever did this is trying to send the government a message or probably just show their capability.
That's why they chose a sparsely populated area.
And also,the footprint of this blast has a striking semblance with the abule ado incident.

1. The Nigerian Police Force could not obviously find an explanation or ascertain what exactly happened.

2. The State governor needed to tell his people something to calm their nerves.

3. Of course we know the next probable cause they would come up with.

If it was a truck.... Where are the sharpnel and remains of the so called truck? Where's th3 chassis, the engine? Even a tyre rim? Were they all vaporised by the explosion? I doubt it... This looks more like an asteroid/meteorite ,those are more likely to dematerialize upon impact. Govt should stop covering up and own up to what really happened. The story about the truck laden with explosives and even the way the police man told the story are both highly suspicious


Most likely a bolide. . . superbolides can do worse. See Chelyabinsk and Tunguska, Russia.


The above was my comment yesterday.

OTOH, it could be something else . . . we'll keep an open mind, let experts visit the site and let's get 'substantial' facts: truck remains and other vehicles in the convoy remains, satellite info, foreign materials on site, names and pictures of individuals involved, name of the company that placed the order, name of the gov't agencies involved, etc.

Whatever it is, we want to be cocksure it is what we are fed it is. We want to learn from it and act on the lessons learnt.

Where do you guys get the idea that bombs create fires , a high velocity bomb will just create a bang flash and distorts the air pressure with hot gases ... Bombs that set off fires are called incendiary bombs and they are designed to do just that explode and set of fires difficult to extinguish ...The science of explosive is deep , it's not one formula fits all

if you're not an half brain, you will read where the Ondo state governor said after the acclaimed responsibility of the Npf, investigation is ongoing in regards to the careless disaster


so asking what can I do when investigation is going on shows how slow you're in reasoning. to even prove how dumb you're, this thread is about disaster that look like attack in Ondo state, you're talking about Coronavirus. how does these two thread mixed?

We must use law of physics to analyze the crater, regardless of the blast agent that caused it.

Back when America was fighting in Fallujah and the insurgents were using IEDs there were similar craters of lesser scale but resulting from explosives buried into the ground with heat and vibration sensors placed on the road surface. A small car can pass over the sensor and not cause a reaction but if a large truck, typical of the American reinforced Armored Vehicles, approach it, the vibration alone could set off the sensor and cause an ERUPTION with upward force that lifts the truck about two storeys up in the air before it freed-drops back to ground and disintegrates.

This crater in Akure shows motive. A pre-arranged deployment. A choreographed act!

When an explosive discharges on the surface, it disperses force in all directions because it is uncontrolled, uncontained and not directed....zero choreography!


Here are questions to ask -
1. Where are debris from the transporting truck. A crater this deep will not leave a truck or trucks in one piece. In fact it cannot be driven out of there because the explosion will also cause a secondary explosion in its fuel tank and burn it down, assuming it remained in one piece, which is impossible.

2. There is a road, and then we see two dark tracks that looks like rails or pipes. It cannot be railway tracks considering the sharp turn angle towards the edge of the crater. What are those tracks?

3. What is the relationship of the damaged buildings to the crater? There is no connection on the ground between the two. If this image was from drone it can be scaled to connect the nearby buildings to the crater. Why has that not been done?

4. The shape of the crater looks like the mouth of a funnel and is uniform around. The bottom-center of the crater is the point from which the energy force distributed out. The force went off from a subterranean core and erupted upward and outward, exhuming soil.

5. An explosion from surface down into the ground penetrates a hole...not a funnel!

There is a bigger and hidden agenda than the police have owned up to. Now, since the police acted as the mouthpiece for this agenda....they must also account for why their story is not supported by the physics and character of the crater.

Very true. I have worked in a cement company. The quarry department which comprises of the department that blast limestone with dynamite. It comes flat until wires are connected and linked to a positive and negative battery before blast can occur.
GamalNasser:


First and foremost most of the dynamite used for rock blasting are set up as low velocity charges and not high velocity , the composition of each charge is determined by the blast master after seeing the rock he wants to blast and the charge is actually set up fully at the blast site .. when dynamite charges for rock blasting are being transported they are mostly flat , meaning there setoff composition and charge compression has not been set and if the catch fire at the point what you will have is a low velocity combustion and not a high velocity explosion just like burning a ware house filled with match sticks ...and again primary setoff charge called the blasting cap will never be transported in the same vehicle as the donkey charge ( the charge that does the work ) .

I have attached a video so you understand how dynamites are set up on site to by blast masters ( just like cooking) to get desired explosion ..it's very hard to set quarry dynamite off because the rock is part of the structure of the explosive
