Did you make bottle bombs as a kid? Were awesome for cheap plastic mail boxes.

These things have been in the local news for weeks.

No. I wasn't an asshole kid.

I'm an asshole now though. Not enough to be destroying someone else's property, though.

Yes.
Fire crews and the Dayton Bomb Squad were called to remove and detonate the unexploded bombs.
Lol @ detonating the unexploded bombs. Couldn't they just poke a hole in them?

Is this the diet coke and mentos thing? If not, I don't have a clue what they are.

Pretty much the same thing here. We made bottle bombs and pipe bombs and blew up crap in our backyards and the creek behind my house. Some friends of mine started to blow up mailboxes, porta johns and anything else that amused them. I went one time to blow up mail boxes but it just didn't feel right so I never went again. They eventually got caught and were charged with arson. (d'oh!) When the cops took all of their bomb making materials the newspaper put them all together to make it look like they had a huge supply of bombs in their house.

Also the time I went, we blew up a row of mail boxes in a trailer park. When they got caught they gave them my name, but the owner of the trailer park said he wouldn't press charges against us if we paid what it cost him to replace it. I was happy to pay.

He was not joking it was real

C4 Two elements are required to create an explosion Heat and Compression

Lighting C4 and watching it burn or cooking over it is just putting out heat.
Lighting C4 and dropping a can a beans on it … not good idea

Small marble size ball of C4 can heat a can of soup in a minute …
