Quote: "Rascal Flatts singer Gary LeVox escaped injury when his bus caught fire on Saturday morning (Jan. 6). The singer and his brother were traveling on the singer's bus to Louisiana, where they planned to go hunting, when the blaze started."

Quote: "Saturday morning's tour bus fire was the first for 2018, but is one of many that has happened to country acts in the last few years. Chris Lane, Eli Young Band, Lee Brice, Randy Houser, Jerrod Niemann, Toby Keith, Canaan Smith and Lady Antebellum's Hillary Scott have all experienced bus fires in recent years."

http://endtimeheadlines.org/2018/01/mysterious-bright-flash-and-ground-shaking-explosion-over-russia/

Quote: "A very bright flash was seen over thousands of kilometers over Russia around 00:22 local time January 7, 2018 (20:22 UTC, January 6). The flash was followed by a ground-shaking explosion."

Quote: "Russian officials and scientists immediately denied there had been a Russian missile test or any reported space rock crashing to earth."

Quote: "The phenomenon which bore a similarity to a nuclear flash was seen and felt over thousands of miles in Russia."

Note: Not a missile and not a meteor - that leaves an atmospheric gas explosion, probably very high in the atmosphere to be seen and felt across such a distance. When big clouds of methane and/or hydrogen sulfide explode, they may have the explosive power of small nuclear bombs, similar in explosive force to the fission bomb that destroyed Hiroshima, but minus any radiation. Once atmospheric explosions start destroying large populated areas - which could begin at any time - then I'd think people will wake up to what's happening, although the first few times that it happens it may be blamed on terrorism, and people will probably buy that story. For a while, anyway. This area, in the far northern latitudes, is where the highest concentrations of methane are in the atmosphere...

It would double what the Prestige oil tanker released when it sank off the coast of Spain in 2002. That accident damaged beaches in France, Spain and Portugal, and led to the closure of one of Spain's richest fishing areas."

Quote: "An explosion has rocked a stricken oil tanker off the coast of Shanghai, forcing maritime authorities to suspend firefighting and rescue efforts. China's ministry of transport said rescue vessels withdrew to a safe distance after the explosion on the Sanchi's bow, the latest setback in the multinational effort to extinguish the burning wreck and find more than 30 missing crew members. The ship is still on fire, the ministry said. Chinese officials have previously warned that the tanker could explode and sink, possibly triggering an environmental disaster. The Sanchi was carrying nearly 1 million barrels of condensate, a type of gassy, ultra-light oil, when it collided on Saturday evening with a freighter 160 miles off the coast and caught fire."

Quote: "But this type of oil has a high concentration of toxic chemicals such as hydrogen sulfide and could cause severe air pollution because it is more volatile than crude, Zhao said."

http://www.sunherald.com/news/business/article194704714.html

Quote: "The casino company said its shuttle boat that caught fire off Florida's Gulf Coast never had any previous problems."

Quote: "The woman died late Sunday hours after the fire began, while 14 other people were injured, Regional Medical Center Bayonet Point spokesman Kurt Conover said Monday. The woman had gone home after escaping the boat that was engulfed in flames, but went to the hospital’s emergency room after she became ill."

Note: She'd been in the water, on the coast, breathing smoke. She could've gotten poisoned by the water or the smoke or both, and the effects just didn't kick in immediately. Hydrogen sulfide sometimes kills with a delayed reaction of minutes, hours or even a few days. Her death is very similar to the firefighters who've been dropping dead hours after fighting a fire...
