Notice the coal dust and Asbestos dust from the demolition. The dust erupted up into the air and traveled towards the crowd, who quickly departed.
Sorry about the blurry photo, the explosion scared the bejesus out of me.
This is the Demolition of the Yallourn Power Station E2 boiler house. The Demolition was kept quiet so that the public would not gather on mass to watch.
I think the authorities were concerned about the large amount of Asbestos that would escape into the air.

Paul Vincent YHS 1962 - Yallourn Fountain - wrote in 2004 - I was driving to Glenmaggie Weir one day and, lo and behold, a Yallourn fountain was spotted, sitting in a private garden in Heyfield! Yes, it even works and has the original copper lights still mounted inside (although the centre pole is now painted white). Was unable to speak to the property owner, as they were out, but will be returning to find out how the hell it was transported there!

Julie, this is an interesting evaluation of John monash's second great achievement!
Soon after, General Monash gained a small but decisive victory at Hamel. It was important for the tactics that Monash used. A combination of infantry, air support, tanks and artillery that had not been used before.
This became the blueprint for the Battle of Amiens, on 8 August, ‘a black day’ for the German army according to General Ludendorff.
