The Boulder City Fire Department headed to the historic dam around 10.30am local time. No additional information about the incident has been released.
A video of the sudden explosion shared to Twitter by a tourist quickly captured circulated the Internet.
The footage shows massive gray clouds of smoke coming from part of the 726-foot tall dam as a person in the background can be heard saying, ‘My goodness, something has just blown up.’
A second video shared to TikTok shows a different angle of the explosion, which social media users speculate occurred at the dam’s generators or turbines.

Now July’s full Moon has come and gone it’s time to start looking for one of the biggest comets ever discovered.
The largest comet ever found when it was detected by astronomers using the Pan-STARRS telescope back in 2017 (though since surpassed by a “mega comet”), C/2017 K2 Panstarrs will reach its minimum distance from our planet—about 1.8 times the Earth-Sun distance—on July 14, 2022.
