Did i just Destroy a Gasket?

[RoryAlexander]

Hey guys, i just recorded a short video of my revving car to show how
the modifications make it sound like now. (I had the car fully warmed
up etc)

Ill be honest, its a pretty dodgy video.

BUT

Roughly halfway through the video it looks like the last gasket of my Exhaust explodes with fiery misery and doom.

Is that the case?

I'm not sure if this is against the rules, but id like to know what happened and why.

well check if theres leaks if the gasket exploded are you sure it isnt just a backfire?

[RoryAlexander]

The fire didnt come from the end of the exhaust, it came
from further up the exhaust.

ill check for leaks now.

Alright, i checked for a leak at the one that emmitted fire and as far
as i can tell its not leaking. that said id need someone to rev it to really know.

The car smelled sort of like rotten eggs or something similar when it happened,
but now it smells fine, that smell is gone.

Could be the cat if you say it smells like rotten eggs.

Brand new Magnaflow cat though.. Headers, cat and exhaust were all brand new and fitted this time last week.

So it shouldnt have been that?
