A natural explanation for strange explosion at Salty Brine Beach ?

  

  I  thought there was a natural explanation for the strange explosion at Salty Brine beach . Hydrogen released by a corroding underground copper cable reacting with salt water sounds quite plausible. But after watching a hydrogen gas experiment on You Tube ( see " The Periodic Table of Videos " , hydrogen ) I question that " a hydrogen explosion would generate no flames or heat ". Recall the famous German Zeppelin Hindenburg disaster in 1939 ? Also we have seen a few hydrogen bomb experiments. Can hydrogen " explode " less dramatically -without oxygen ?
Just a footnote to Salty Brine Beach. They just had the colorful " Blessing of the Fleet " there. Why did they change the name of Galilee Beach- a beautiful Biblical name - to honor a radio celebrity- the man of a million commercials and " No school in Foster-Glouster " ? They could have named the Rhode Island Mall after the Old Salt.
