I blame BSHL.

Seriously though that looks like Joe Biden and Donald Trump had a baby.

Was just on GMBHD itv

[A man suffered life-threatening injuries
in a gas explosion that destroyed a house
in Birmingham and badly damaged at least three others.
Emergency services were called just after 20:30 BST to
the scene on Dulwich Road, in Kingstanding.

Four other men suffered more minor injuries
and were discharged by paramedics.

Footage on social media showed flames,
damage and debris from a terraced
red brick house.]

boilers have numerous safety features built in to stop the risk of explosion, so it implies someone did a dodgy repair
