This is the scariest thing I've seen in a long time.

That was INSANE. That one blast knocked the fucker on his ass. And can you imagine the amount of money going up in all that smoke? When did this happen, any idea? I'd like to read about it.

Found an article that may or may not match up with Baum's footage.

Either way, a very interesting read:
http://www.wsws.org/articles/2000/may2000/neth-m31.shtml

UPDATE:
Yes, the article matches the footage...
(it happened back in May 2000)

CNN: Rescuers search for more victims ...

WSWS: Explosion at Dutch fireworks warehouse ...

Enschede: The Aftermath

Pictures: The Enschede Firework Disaster

Pretty fucked up man, the whole situation.

Yes indeed. The info you found seems to be correct. Just when it seemed the booming was over, that final explosion probably annihilated everything. over 100 TONS of explosives. Man....
