Was reading the posts below the clip and one bloke pointed out it was the tree immediately behind the one in the fore ground . having watched it again I think he is right .

Note it's the tree behind the front one that gets blasted. Literally just gets blown to shreds. Would be interested to see if it sprouts up from the base. Also note the little puff of smoke to the right hand side of the video - a root got smouldered, perhaps?
