No, it did not explode. It started to, but the rudimentary design of the device was apparently flawed, and firefighters and bomb squad officers were able to prevent it from going up.

The three propane tanks and ten gallons of gasoline would have done serious damage, and being Times Square, potentially hundreds of people would have been injured or killed.

Based on recent events, it would be wise to expect more of this. The US has been largely spaired the experience of terrorist attacks. The attacks of 9/11 let the genie out of the bottle. It would be wise to become very aware of what is around you. Paranoia and panic are a mistake. Just learn to heighten your situational awareness.

Now say thankyou to the nice men who helped the bomb not go off.

"Thankyou men.."

God save them. They are our everyday heros.
