An explosion in Belper, some ten miles away, was caught on my weather webcam today. The explosion was over the horizon, put black smoke can clearly be seen on the video before it drifts across the valley over to Bracken House.

Within five minutes of posting the clip to YouTube, I was contacted by the Derby Evening Telegraph, and East Midlands Today, to ask if they could use the clip. The newspaper used the clip, along with a quote I supplied them with, on an article on their website, but the television programme didn’t use the video.

This is easily the most viewed of any video I have uploaded to YouTube.
