The bottles will not look "normal" and will be capped. The same type of "bomb" can be made any one of a number of ways including just shoving some dry ice into a bottle and capping it.

Roxxx 0 #8 September 2, 2010 911 on the trash, if your perspective is that limited... The details are if something is in it and it has a lid on it... but, yeah, more f'kn reasons to put more control in place... because we live in a world of adult babies... Yesterday my car battery went dead Security had me fill out a form with name, address, license... then, used a portable battery that did not work... The system they work in runs on fear of somthing going wrong, so, couldn't use their truck for the jump... I had to tell them to leave so I could find an adult without fear of helping someone... Fear based systems... they're out there and growing. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hcsvader 1 #9 September 2, 2010 From my experience draino bombs usually begin to expand as soon as the draino and tinfoil are mixed in the bottle. I dont see how they are setting them up so that they don't explode right away.Have you seen my pants? it"s a rough life, Livin' the dream >:) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I could set one up that doesn't detonate until its disturbed... but throwing it out of a car while in motion... that would be tricky. Could they have some sort of barrier inside that the drano would eventually eat through and expose the foil after the placement?

I knew a guy, who decided to play with dry ice to make one, it went off in his hand, and the shards of plastic, hardened like glass, dug deep into his arm, lucky for him, it missed his artery .CLICK HERE! new blog posted 9/21/08 CSA #720 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chiquita 14 #12 September 3, 2010 I agree. But unfortunately fear equals control.
