In the scary footage recorded by Kristy Hairston aka @kristynashville you can see a large mushroom shaped cloud of smoke billowing into the sky from an explosion that happened on a lower level beneath the tour area. As the dark cloud of smoke slightly clears you can see there is large fire on the ground. The viral video has left people wondering what exploded at Hoover Dam.
While it’s not confirmed judging from the video it looks like some type of transformer or power generator exploded at Hoover Dam. You can also see there are trucks very close to the area where the fire was quickly growing.
