the explosion happens around the 1 minute mark. its pretty neat to see.

Well, I can tell you, we're not using SpaceX on our next vacation.

I wonder if taxpayers will be footing any of that? That launch pad is wrecked.

Kim Jong Un be like, "Bitch, we got a better rocket than you"

a facebook satellite was the payload that blew up.

Why test the engine with the payload strapped on? That seems overly optimistic.

I imagine...it might be easier to lift the rocket and payload as a whole, than to have a crane put it up at the top, a day or two before launch.

Either way, it was spectacular

I'm certain that brought back a lot of bad memories for NASA.

Holy shiz!
You can see the towers flex from the concussion. It's pretty trippy like the nuclear test footage from the 40's.
The camera must be a crazy long distance from the rocket too. It took a long time for the sound to reach the camera.
