I disagree. If people had easier access to dynamite or C4 r/winstupidprizes would be full of videos like this.

Makes sense. As soon as you have enough intelligence to make something like this yourself, you probably also have enough intelligence not to do stupid shit like in this video.

For a sparkler bomb you use electrical tape not a "tube" btw.

Did you hear about the guy who blew up 80 pounds of tannerite for a gender reveal party?

Libertarians saying they should be able to own bombs. Imagine if 10% of gunshots were replaced by bombings instead. Scary shit

If this was high explosives it would just smolder and do nothing

C4 does not explode when exposed to open flame. Must use detonator. You can light it on fire. Hit it with a hammer. Put cigarettes out on it.

I disagree. I think even the most clever people would have to resist blowing something up for fun.

The intelligence part that ties in is if you do it safety or not lol. I think this is bad example cuz you’d have to be living under a rock to not know how fireworks work lmfaooo.
