contents Videos of the 2020 Beirut explosion offer a rare opportunity to see a shock wave. We summarize the non-linear theory of a weak shock, derive the Landau-Whitham formula for the thickness of the overpressure layer and, using frame-by-frame video analysis, we demonstrate agreement of data and theory.
