At first I thought maybe this was fake, but you can see real people on the boat to the right. Anyone know where this happened or what it was?

from another site with the same clip "Underwater explosions are quite a bit more impressive than I expected. The black dust in the video is from a sunken WWII barge full of explosives that wasn't known about at the time of the operation, intended to clear underwater mines."

This is the French Navy, who is STILL clearing missles, mines, rockets and anything else explosive left and dumped in the ocean from WW2. They across a sunken barge off the coast of Normandy that was filled with explosives and depth charged it. From what I read they thought they were blowing up a couple rockets, and didnt notice a entire ship half sunken in the sand. *Pop*

My guess they were testing a dept charge bomb(for blowing up submarines) but seeing the black water going up with it surely they must of hit something (like a sub or sunken vessel...the blackness could be diesel fuel). I'm curious to know what it was too.

it was a planned military explosion of some kind. It was expected by the camera man. That kind of bang would have floored an unsuspecting bystander easily. It was either a very powerful underwater mine or torpedo; it was rather shallow.

If it was "unexplained", how come that european motherfucker was counting down before the explosion?
Even I know that... and I'm from Fresno.

i saw this video on youtube a while ago, they were testing an underwater mine to blow up a sunken ship, problem was they didnt know that the sunken ship was still full of explosives,the black stuff is the sea floor getting blown to peices. and no im not sure who and where it was blown up except it was a mititary of some kind.

what do you mean unexplained? you can hear the guy counting before the explosion so they have a bomb underneath the water. they're testing or something.
