I want to believe this explanation (under Occam's Razor), but from the article: "Danish police believe 'powerful explosions' blew *four holes* in the pipe and its newer twin, Nord Stream 2.

Wouldn't a rocketing hydrate plug likely blow a single hold in the pipe?

Multiple plugs?

Just watched one of the videos. I'm not an expert on this at all, but it looks to me like the pipe was blown out from the inside.
