This was an RTO certification run of some sort of an A346. It failed. And so did the firemen.

Now that is Intense!!!!!!!!!!! FAILURE!!!!!!!!!!! The tire explosions are amazing. That is why you always no matter what approach an airplanes landing gear after any form of motion has been undertaken from the forward or aft position because when an aircraft tire explodes it explodes out the sides. Generally no angle is totally safe but that is the safest method. Those are tricky fires to put out as well. They generally have to burn till the temp drops to really low levels .

No, I was laughing as well. No one got hurt so it's not bad to laugh.
