[00:00:00]When a conventional explosion happens, the blast wave pushes outward in all directions at once, but a vacuum bomb works differently. It disperses a fine cloud of fuel into the air first, then ignites it. The fuel cloud detonates simultaneously across its entire volume.

The vacuum created by the oxygen being consumed pulls everything toward the center, buildings, air, people at hundreds of miles per hour. It isn't the explosion that causes the most damage. It's the implosion that follows it.
