WATCH: The moment explosion strikes Ariana Grande concert

Vision from inside The Manchester Arena has captured the moment thousands of Ariana Grande concert-goers were sent into a panic by a huge blast.

A group of young girls can be seen standing close to the stage as they try and figure out what all the panic is, when what is thought to be a second blast erupts.

The blast brings on a brief stunned silence before the first of many screams can be heard erupting inside the arena.

"Oh my god, oh my god," the woman can be heard screaming.
