File that under "Hol' Ma' Beer an' Wats Dis!"

I'm surprised it's still legal.

It is not hard to conceive of using this stuff in some more nefarious ways. It doesn't take a lot of ingenuity to make a good size bomb with the stuff. Maybe it should not be sold in pound size quantities.

Yeah its kinda scary stuff. We had some in Vegas. Video on FB and I think on YouTube of the last day firing squad blowing some up.

Just when I feel jaded about the question 'how fucking stupid can you be" something comes along to intrigue me.

2750 m/s x Mass of Shrapnel = Stupid Youtuber.

It should also be noted that the manufacturer recommends using no more than 0.5-pound of the mixed composition at once.

I feel bad for his family and friends, not him.

At least take the blade off first. $10 says thats what got him.

Dang, that's a drag.

If you can smell danger from where you're doing it, well, you're having fun. But if you can't smell it, you sure are enjoying yourself.

The intrepid shooter takes the one and leaves the other.

This could only get dummer if the mower was running, and at max RPM. :roll:

Could be worse, he could have been sitting on a riding mower.

If he was trying to be A "Tannerite Hero" He could have at least shot it while prone and behind cover. (common sense)

Therein lies the reason I limit 1/2 lb of Tannerite per watermelon.
