The media and the Executive branch reported that the sole source of the devastation was a single truck bomb consisting of 4,800 pounds 2.4 tons of ammonium nitrate, transported to the location in a Ryder Truck and parked in front of the building. It is impossible that the destruction to the building could have resulted from such a bomb alone. To cause the damage pattern that occurred to the Murrah building, there would have to have been demolition charges at several supporting column bases, at locations not accessible from the street, to supplement the truck bomb damage.
Yeah, I think it took MUCH more than 2 tons of Ammonium Nitrate to blow 1/3 of a damn 9-story building up.
