I just ordered some tannerite.

[Anonymous D]

Anyone ever used any of this stuff?

I heard about it and being the pyro I am, I had to get some.

Its basically a (LEGAL) explosive that will only explode when shot.

I ordered enough for a 1 lb bomb. Ill probably make two 1/2 lb ones though.

This is what it is.

And this is what it does.

That's pretty neat for a legal explosive device. I'll have to check in to that.

On January 14th 2008, a man in Red Wing, Minnesota was accused of detonating 100 lb (45 kg). of tannerite inside the bed of a dump truck by shooting it with a .50 caliber rifle from 300 yards (270 m) away. The ensuing blast could be felt at Prairie Island Nuclear Power Plant, and officials from the FBI, BATF, Nuclear Regulatory Commission, US Postal Service, and the US Coast Guard have become involved, along with local law enforcement agencies.[1]The man, Brian Wesley Childs, was arrested for gross disregard for human life and destruction of property with an explosive or incendiary.

This is why it should be illegal for some people.

Yea I saw that. 100 pounds wtf. I would have gotten WAYYYY more than 300 yards away with that shit.

[Snead]

Just don't be a dumbass with it please.

And make a video of it if possible

Ill probably do a .5 lb bomb and get like 150 yards away. I just need to find something to blow up now.

You can borrow my house if you'd like.

I saw that. I bet it fucking stunk.

Ok, bring it down here and buy another 50 lbs of tannerite.

I know it's hard to imagine because I live in Alabama, but my house actually doesn't move.

[Anonymous D]

Today I was actually thinking about what I could blow up.

Im thinking about just putting the tannerite in a 5 gal bucket full of gas.

[djwolford]

Seriously, put it in a backpack, strap it to a stray dog, shoot the backpack, profit.

lol

That would be hard to hit a moving target the size of a softball at 150 yards. Plus he will start running once I shoot once.

I mean I could tie one down, but thats no fun.

Maybe Ill hire some Mexicans.

[djwolford]

Tie him to a tree, it'll be a fun test of skill.

[Anonymous D]

I mean Id probably have to give the dog body armor.

[Pepsi]

Put it on a propane tank.

[djwolford]

Well if you accidentally hit him first it will make it a bit easier. It's a win-win situation.

[Anonymous D]

But then that puts us back at square one. Just blowing up a dead animal.

I think the bucket of gas would look cooler.

I wish my friend still had that shitty Probe.

One of my dads clients owns a junkyard. Maybe I can get an old junker.

[djwolford]

Car was my first instinct, but then I was like who really has an old car that they just want to see blown up lying around?

How about if you hit the dog, put it in a bucket of gas and then shoot at the gas.

[Pepsi]

Put it on a propane tank.

I repeat.

[Anonymous D]

I repeat.

I didnt see that, but thats too unsafe. Plus I dont think it would even catch. Just throw the tank.

[djwolford]

Yeah I mean Tidus we're trying to come up with something that doesn't involve Anon-d dying here.

Well, my first attempt on his life went wrong....

I got my eyes on you.

[djwolford]

See if you can drill out a part of a tree, then put it in there and try to down the tree with it.

Damn thats a good idea.

But I dont know where I could blow a tree up. I planned on doing at a buddies and they have tons of trees. But they are all pecan trees. Ill have to look around and see if they have any rotten trees or anything. They should have some down ones since the hurricane.

[djwolford]

Oooooooooh, idea. Drill a hole, insert tannerite, strap stray dog to tree, down tree and blow up dog in one swift motion.

[Anonymous D]

Im going to a friends and we are going to discuss this further. Ill let you know what happens.

[Pepsi]

I got my eyes on you.

Not if they get knocked out by the semi...

I mean, you do?

[Cryptic]

You're gonna shoot your eye out.

[Atomic]

Do it in a metal pipe then put a baseball inside the pipe and see how far, if at all, it shoots the ball out.

I'm willing to bet that will simply blow both items to pieces.

[Anonymous D]

Im betting it would. I could use some small like 1/8 lb charges though.

But you HAVE to shoot this stuff to detonate it. There is no other way. So id basically be putting a hole for teh pressure to escape.

[piranhas]

I would like to come watch.

[Anonymous D]

Ill let you know.

Let me know if you see any refrigerators or microwaves or anything like that on the side of the road.

We need to find a place to do it and something to blow up first.

[bacon ops]

He could've made a much larger explosion with other substances, for a heck of a lot cheaper.


TL;DR

people got scared, so they're putting a man in jail for hurting no one.

That's why you shoot it down the pipe. OH wai....

There is a stove out on the street by my place.

Too big. I dont want all kinds of shrapnel flying everywhere.

Im actually thinking about just doing gas so there is no shrapnel.

just flying, flaming liquid that may or not form new compounds with the tannerite.
