You are thinking big stuff, got to about 2.10 on this, it is the weapon the link says was probably used. A shoulder launched weapon and with a tin roof I would say that lifted due to the pressure while the weapon did its worst below, hence the walls etc still standing... poor guys, did not deserve that
