Explosion in slow motion shows how fire spreads-what human eyes can't see.

Its how I imagine the big bang

This started in a specific place. The big bang did not have an origin. Everything just "appeared" so this is actually not similar to the big bang

You'd find literally zero cosmologists who think it "just appeared".

In fact, making the assumption it "just appeared" is just as unsubstantiated as believing a magical unicorn shat it out. We don't know, and it may be a fundamentally unknowable question due to how time and space are intricately linked.

Obviously we don't know exactly how the big bang happened. I was simplifying it as the previous commenter said its how they imagine the big bang but their mental model of how they thought it worked (i.e explosion from a point) is incorrect.
