These are good ones.
Airbus A380-800 worse case scenario brake test. Gnarly when you think about the number involved.

Even better when they do the RTO test on a complete airframe.

I believe they are the fuse plugs in the wheels melting and releasing pressure. They're designed to melt at a certain temperature in order to release air pressure from the tires and prevent them from exploding.
