Shocking footage shows the moment a house was destroyed by a massive explosion - leaving two men injured, one critically.
CCTV captures debris flying across the street after Shrewsbury Close in Bloxwich, Walsall, West Mids., was rocked by the huge blast.
Emergency services were called to the scene at around 9.30pm on Monday night (28/4) and 65 firefighters battled to extinguish the blaze.
Paramedics were called two hours later to Lower Lichfield Street, in Willenhall, three miles away and found two men with serious burns.
The first man suffered critical injuries while the second was treated for serious injuries and both were taken to Birmingham's Queen Elizabeth Hospital.
Dramatic video footage shows the impact of the blast and the immediate aftermath as flames tore through the two storey mid-terraced property.
Two men were also captured on camera fleeing the scene across a grass verge as concerned neighbours gathered outside in the street.
It was captured by neighbour Hasnath Miah, 43, a dad-of-four, who said he rushed outside after hearing what he thought was a "bomb blast."
