I agree with the majority about the debris.  But the main thing, in my eyes,
that makes this obviously fake is the -huge- stream of fire -instantly- erupting
from the explosion.  We're talking a brick building here, right?  Where on earth
is all that fire coming from?  Tone it down to barely there, ie -really- short
flames barely visible, that don't appear instantly, and you've got realism.
