For those of you who have never lived in NYC, the street randomly explodes at pretty frequent intervals. Sometimes it&#8217;s a steam pipe, sometimes it&#8217;s electrical. Right now firefighters are putting out a Radio Shack that was a little too close to an exploding manhole\/transformer situation. We have video of that, plus three other recent explosions. <\/p>\n<p>After Radio Shack (note the calm disinterest of the people who pass by), we have a transformer explosion in Brooklyn. After that, an exploding manhole in Manhattan on 6th Street (between Avenues A and B). It&#8217;s surrounded by brave ConEd workers who we do not envy. The last one is on 29th Street.
