If you have ever looked closely at the film of the Hindenburg disaster
you will note that the destruction of the air ship did not result from a
"blast" it was a relatively slow burn from one end of the gas bag to the
other. Would not actually be classified as an explosion such as a BLEVE.
Boiling Liquid Expanding Vapor Explosion.

Adds a whole new dimension to the phrase "lighting up the tires."
