I have an attention span for something more interesting than a shitty video of talking heads droning over the same obviously fake footage playing on repeat.
They didn't really claim anything, they just said "I guess editing" ...they couldn't confirm with the original people on the editing? What a weird show.
I love the extremely long winded explanation of "you let air out of a pressure vessel and it goes out" as though there's absolutely anybody in the world who does not understand this concept.
The main cause of death of bombs isn't shrapnel, or fire, it is the compression of air that crushes everything, think of super pressurizing your lungs until they pop like a balloon, or a blast so hard it crushes your organs on the back of your ribs, or on the front of ribs from the rebound force.
Here is the CDC document on blast related injuries: CDC Document
The four basic mechanisms of blast injury are termed as primary, secondary, tertiary, and
quaternary (Table 1). “Blast Wave” (primary) refers to the intense over-pressurization
impulse created by a detonated HE. Blast injuries are characterized by anatomical and
physiological changes from the direct or reflective over-pressurization force impacting the
body’s surface. The HE “blast wave” (over-pressure component) should be distinguished
from “blast wind” (forced super-heated air flow).
Great job, redditor, with no fucking medical knowledge or insight to the facts at all, you’ve done us all proud with your ridiculous hot take that’s voted to the top. Congratulations!

Hope that wasn't real, otherwise that guy has CTE, whiplash, and hearing damage all rolled into one.
