Holy moly! That's all I can say.
Single guy. Would any of your wives let you even try something like that at the kitchen table? I know mine wouldn't.

You know, I saw it coming, and it was still awesome.
I did something similar when I was a kid.
I got hold of some rim-fire cartridges, and used pliers to pull the bullets out, then used a needle to pick the propellant out of each one so i had a little pile on the desk.
You can probably already see where I'm going with this. One cartridge I picked a little too hard and the resulting explosion set the pile off. The bang was huge, fortunately my parents were out and didn't hear it - or see me stumbling around half blinded with a blackened face, and blackened and throbbing hands. The cartridge I'd been holding looked like a half peeled banana, and everything on my desk had been blown across the room in all driections.
Thankfully I was more stunned than hurt, and managed to clean everything up so nobody found out!
I don't do anything like that these days, though in recent years I confess I may have inserted large fireworks into large pumpkins to vaporize them. :D
I've now heard that this is a fake video. Still made me laugh...
Yeah, I thought it might be faked when the explosion appears to put the main lights back on. Blowing the lights out, sure. But blowing them on after they'd been switched off? :rofl2:
Still raised a chuckle though, thanks!
he needs a longer match next time
And The Darwin Award goes to.......
Yup, it is a fake video. The guy also doesn't seem to know what he's talking about, because Mg, though it burns very brightly, does not explode. That would not be the result of too much Mg.
Exactly what I was going to say...seems they could have done a little more research to make their fake a little more believable.Quote:
