>1) they were on a military explosives test ground and firing range. implying that they were in someone's back yard is a bit disingenuous

your point seems to be moot as this military explosives test ground and firing range happens to be located pretty much in the back yard of these homes.

>when i'm sure more dangerous things are regularly tested there.

either dumb luck or much better trained and/or smarter professionals doing the testing. (btw, i lived close to 2 military shooting ranges [ one for guns like AK-47 and another is the tank range ] and there is a world of difference between how military and civilians handle the weapons, i mean skill-wise, though even military do have mishaps )
