Smoke bombs

The other day, I was thinking of the stupid things I did in my school days and had a good laugh at myself. This was at University, mind you. I came across a free downloadable book on the internet that teaches you how to make all kinds of bombs. I could not believe all this was true and decided to try one for myself. I chose the most harmless sounding one. This was a smoke bomb like a prank you can play on your friends without killing anyone.

The recipie called for some everyday ingredients like sugar and stuff but the special ingredient was a certain chemical called 'potassium nitrate' or something like that. (the stuff you learnt at Chemistry class in secondary school.) I bought it at the local chemical factory. heh heh.. I followed the steps to mix it together and the output was a rock like solid. When I lighted it, the amount of smoke generated was similar to a giant mushroom cloud of an atomic explosion that rose 10 metres high. The rock gave off a hissing sound and the smoke was so dense that it stayed like fog for half an hour in my back yard. My neighbours couldnt see me and were shouting to see if I was ok. They wanted to call the fire squad. I almost pissed in my pants man....After the smoke cleared, there was a hole in the ground.

Wanting to prove that this was not an accident, I tried to do it again another time. That time, the bomb went off in the kitchen and my cabinets were black beyond regonition....

I was thinking to myself, : this book is dead serious man. Which ever lunatic gets his hands on this book is gonna kill someone. And mine was only the smoke bomb....

Wink.....
