The explosion in the video does show visible smoke, but there is not a visible flame or fire.


That is what explosives look like. You're thinking 80's movies explosions, made with barrels of gas.

It's about the lack of visible flame, but more about the velocity of the burn, essentially instantaneous at normal camera speeds.
