	An '''explosion''' is a physical event, generally destructive, that occurs in several different circumstances. It can destroy nearby [[Minecraft:block]]s, propel and damage nearby [[Minecraft:entities]], and cause [[Minecraft:fire]]s in some cases. Explosions produce a "shockwave" [[Minecraft:particle]] effect. Explosives include [[Minecraft:ghast]] fireballs, [[Minecraft:TNT]], [[Minecraft:End crystals]], [[Minecraft:beds]] when used outside of the Overworld, and [[Minecraft:respawn anchors]] when used outside of the Nether.
