I knew hot water heaters could launch like a rocket, but this kind of damage does not seem believable. Here is the news story:

I’m not sure if this was talked about here yet, but I’d love to hear some input from some seasoned pros on this. Did a faulty water tank really cause this much damage?

The water heater itself didn’t cause that. It was a gas leak.

Not a water heater explosion. Nat gas leak that may have originated at water heater.
