The moment when he picks them up off the mid-explosion truck gives me chills every time. The build-up is so good.

Except diesel doesn't explode like that. (I don't know what's wrong with me that I can't just enjoy movies.)
If you don't like that bit you should probably also fast forward the flying guy and the trucktop sword fight!
It’s computer world diesel. The swapped out for kerosine for efficiency, and the tank was 1/3rd full with a ton of high pressure vapor.
Diesel doesn’t “explode”, but it can deflagrate very quickly with the right vapor conditions.
Alternatively, we've seen them do things like replace all the doors and windows in a building with bricks when no one's looking.
Maybe they loaded the truck up with a variety of explosives as it was driving down the highway.
