Hmm.. it isn't safe to be anywhere near an IED, as shrapnel will fly all over the place
You are not wrong seen nothing more than diesel be deadly, three 50 gallon drums plus a bit of something to react with, set off by a British Army Explosive guy using a stick of dynamite.
Blast area was just under a mile & I do mean just under fist size peices landed about 20 feet away so I ran behind the Land Rover just in case.
Cheap big bang if know what you are doing
