Blast Footage Released: Norwegian Diners React To Oslo Bombing

Norwegian television has released footage from the recent explosion in downtown Oslo. In the video, Norwegian diners react in terror as restaurant windows are blown in by the blast. Cameras in both the main dining area and the kitchen of the kebab restaurant capture what is basically “the calm before the storm,” with people chatting, eating and flipping through a magazine when they’re very suddenly caught unawares by the explosion.

None of the diners or restaurant workers appeared injured (just terribly dusty), but the explosion resulted in a total of eight deaths. The man allegedly behind the bombing, Anders Behring Breivik, would continue on a shooting rampage on the nearby island of Utoya, murdering an additional 68 people.

Have a look at the footage:
