Fact of the Day: There things called Thermobaric weapons that are mostly fuel (which gives them the other name of Fuel Air Bomb). These weapons have a two step detonation, step one the canister separates and spreads the fuel, having it mix with the air, step two the charge detonates and ignites the air itself. This causes a massive fire ball explosion that has been noted to suck the air out of the environment (including ripping lungs out or animals) and being so hot that the ground beneath the blast it turned to glass. Some weapons that utilize this are the U.S. Mother of All Bombs, the Russian Father of All Bombs and TOS-1 Burantino.

(I find that Russia seems to have a massive love for this kind of weapon.)
