No, I was talking about seismically-induced transient ground deformations (earth movement / earthquake) to explain to you how one part of the pipe would rupture when the pressure increases (because you asked "Explain to me how pressure built inside the pipe at just that section inbetween the torn welds? If the pressure inside the pipe was enough to make the entire vessel rupture, it would have destroyed the entire pipe... not just one section..." which is obviously incorrect). It is ironic that you said I didn't know what I wrote and yet you didn't understand it.
It is just a fact that natural gas pipelines have caused craters because of "loss of containment" caused by mechanical failure or operational/human error (internal over pressures) among other things.
