An Incredible Slow-Motion Video of an Explosive Oil Fire

In a recent video by The Slow Mo Guys (previously), Gavin Free and Dan Gruchy dangerously pour water onto a burning oil fire with explosive results. After the dramatic example of what not to do in the event of an oil fire, Free and Gruchy explain how a damp towel can be used to cover the fire and smother the flames without an explosion.
