Plot hole: Robert first shoots the electrical transformer on the pole's top, then enters the bakery, slices the wheat sacks and uses electrical fans to create a dust cloud for a dust explosion. How are the electrical fans supposed to work after the electricity is cut?
Suggested correction: The transformer he shoots isn't the only one servicing the town.
Robert McCall: There are two kinds of pain in this world. The pain that hurts, the pain that alters. Today, you get to choose.
Question: Why does York suddenly fly backwards on the tower?
Answer: Extremely high winds from the storm. He was relatively protected lying down but blew backwards when he got up.
A cable on the roof grabbed him and pulled him back due to the wind velocity.
