The roar

January 12th, 2006, 10pm

On the evening of January 12, 2006 a factory near my place caught fire. Like hell. Never seen anything like it. Miraculously, nobody got injured. 30 million Euros went down the drain, one department of that factory had to be closed. I’m quite grateful the 200+ firefighters were able to keep some massive hydrogen tanks on the premises from exploding.
