I was under the impression that PP made the explosion as he 
transformed to fake his death- the explosion would have to be near him 
but not harm him- I think it was this explosion that killed the 
muggles- although they could have died due to random curses put out to 
stop Sirius-- but I really think Sirius was laughing at his attempts 
to fake things- and thinking that PP wasn't equipped magic wise to 
kill Sirius- and that he knew PP was transforming-

a little scattered but I think you get the point- I have no idea what 
spell he used but I do think it was some sort of smoke screen for the 
muggles benefit- why else would he have yelled out something about 
Sirius killing JAmes and Lily- before he did it- he knew he was 
responsible for this- he just wanted to make a good story-

The muggles have no idea what they are talking about but are able to 
report the story- to make PP look like a martyr- and lead Sirius into 
prison- I don't think he tried to kill Sirius at all.

Julie-  whose brain is not working as organized as it should after a 
long day at work.
