well the hook in indy is gone

Don't worry, it'll be back.

And it'll look exactly the same.

 

This was a grease fire that got out of control. Too make matters worse, apparently there were PROPANE TANKS inside the travel center and the intense heat caused those to "cook off".(I'm sure that place had a code violation with those tanks inside the building- most Pilot/ Flying J s that I've been to strictly prohibit propane tanks from inside the building.

 

as if they could do anything with a fire that big.

 

I thought fire trucks could run red lights

 

The place was a dump. Full of hookers.

 

How would you go about putting that fire out? Why take that liability. I'd rather not injure myself because I don't know what I'm doing personally. I'll stop, make sure everyone is okay, and call 911. After that there's not much an average person can do.

 

If it's full of hookers how can it be a dump?
It's be my luck ID just start going to the bathroom and they'd say there's a fire. Then I'd have to choose going half ####ed or burning to death... Tough choice.

 

Before fire was invented. They'd gather around and help admire the magic of fire.

 

Has common sense changed? No. Just more cameras. Back in the day people who had recorders would do the same.

 

Gas tank wouldn't blow either unless a very specific A/R ratio is reached. Usually you need an explosion to vaporize the fuel before it will blow.
