OK, see those little flashes going inside the smoke? It's not grainy video, those are little fireworks going off because a semi carrying them that caught fire; part of 122 other vehicles that collided into each other earlier this afternoon near Battle Creek, MI. 50 semis were part of the pileup, one of which was also carrying over 40,000 lbs of hazardous materials. When those materials caught fire as well, a 3 mile radius around the crash scene had to be evacuated. The fire has since been put out.
