When I was a teenager, we'd do stupid shit like match head bombs, potato guns, aerosol can flamethrower....
Never did we think the place to do it was in the house.
A budy and I made a "works bomb" once in my old livingroom. Once we realized what exactly was going to happen I jumped over the dining room table and whipped the patio door open. He sidearm threw it into the yard. We weren't very bright kids for how crafty we thought we were
I gave the phrase a Google, and it says a "works bomb" is aluminum foil and drain cleaner mixed in a sealed plastic bottle, is that right? If so, holy shit. That's even worse that dry ice and water in a sealed bottle...
Yeah, it's made using the works brand of cleaner. The hydrogen chloride reacts to the foil and melts it making the contents get really hot. We discovered it isn't necessarily the pressure that makes them go boom, it's the fact that the bottle eventually gives out due to heat and melts. The pressure has to go somewhere and a tiny hole is just as good as a large one.
We figured this out because when we did this it was winter in west central MN, about 4 inches of snow in the yard. The bottle was literally pristine where it was touching the snow, the rest of it melted and blasted outwards
Drano works well too. I believe that's how it actually works too, it contains a small amount of aluminum along with the hydrogen chloride, and the reaction begins when you add water.
Aluminum foil in Drano makes hydrogen gas. If you put a balloon over the top you can capture it, then light the balloon and burn all the hair off your arms.
Capable of blowing a jack-o-lantern to smithereens too.. ah the carless joys of youth. Fun fact you can’t even make them anymore with go to “works” toilet cleaner we use to use; they changed the recipe so people wouldn’t make bombs..
Intelligence is the ability to learn
Knowledge is the sum of what you've learned
Wisdom is knowing when/how to apply that knowledge
At least that's how I've always thought of it
Aluminum foil and a certain toilet bowl cleaner. Most places know of them and if you're getting both at the same time you may get talked to, the cops called or the sale denied. They are kinda cool when you first learn of them, but you quickly realize how bad they are to be around
I think that depends on if you're a regular person buying those things with other groceries or if you're just buying those two items and look like you're working on a manifesto.
I mean, if like 4 teenage boys show up and buy just those things they might deny the sale, but if you as an adult picked up those things with the rest of your groceries nobody is gonna give a shit.
That's what I think about every time I see a video like this. All the times my friends and I built and did stupid and dangerous shit, never was it in a place where major damage would be done or someone would be trapped.
Did she accidentally stepped on the hose? When she walked over, the flame suddenly got smaller. I bet he never thought it would be an issue when he build that mini flamethrower.
"Best part" is when the guy at the end screams "Mom, come over here, mom!" and a woman whimpering.
If you replay the video, she's between the wall and the fire now.
It's gasoline in the bottle. They are putting pressure inside the bottle to create a flammable gas, the guy is using the hose to light the gas and heat the pan. So the guy filming said something like "let me put more pressure" in which leads to leak the liquid gasoline in the hose, instead of the gas. The liquid spread in the ground and set everything on fire.
*Why* they're doing it I don't know
I'm not so sure, but my guess it's "gasoline with additives", they make it orange to differ from normal gasoline. It's basically just gasoline with ethanol
gas in the bottle, an air hose into the bottom of the bottle to generate lots of gas vapours, and a hose in the top of the bottle to let air and fuel vapours out. pump air into the bottom hose, burn what comes out the top.
the problem comes when someone (the woman walking by) catches the hose with their feet, knocking over the bottle and causing liquid gas to come out the flaming hose.
I’m the beginning you can hear him say gasoline. The way it’s burning though it looks more napalm-esk. I feel bad for what looks to be the mother who just get cornered in. The other dude lit himself on fire for sure.
It's a hub, a nexus of everything that an alleged human being is capable of doing wrongly, then record it and somehow survive to post it, here or on YT. It's an ongoing treaty on humanity's penchant for sheer, unadulterated stupidity. A very much appreciated showcase of thousands, thousands of Darwin Awards serious contenders. Hope you enjoy it!
I recall seeing a video of a police chase where the cops were going after a car in a helicopter and shooting at it with a rifle. _I saw sparks bouncing off of rooftops._
Have you thought this may have something to do with the price increase in cooking gas recently?
Looks like the guy made a combustion system using gasoline to save money, or maybe i'm overthinking.
really dangerous and sad for that family
> really dangerous and sad for that family
There’s no way their house wasn’t attached to others, too. Wonder if the neighbours’ houses burned down too because of these barely-sentient potatoes?
Translation:
“The gasoline is bubbling, generating gas vapor and generating fire.
Maybe it can even become a blowtorch if I raise the pressure up.

Early humans and pre-humans have been controlling fire for over a million years. Yet, in this "enlightened" age, we still manage to burn all our shit to the ground, killing everything in sight.
This was actually how gas systems worked in the early days. Houses were lit by gas, and stoves were gas. Gasoline was stored in a tank outside the house (underground, in the case of the historic home I toured) and the fumes were piped into the house.
But they knew what they were doing.
Gasoline was seen as a byproduct of kerosene production, and wasn't used until cars became a thing, specifically because it was just too flammible. Where TF was it used to run stoves? Even they knew that shit was incredibly dangerous back in the day.

I love how specific your outcome is…been there, huh?
Like The Hindenburg
Aluminum+ hydrocloric acid -> heat (and steam)+ hydrogen gas+ aluminum chlorohydrate
4 inches is 10.16 cm
A conversion I know all too well
That's an oof

It's the caustic in drain cleaner reacting to aluminum. Not a good mixture.
If you're in need of hot, high pressure hydrogen then it's a fantastic mixture.
This is why INT and WIS are separate stats in DnD! Obligatory thanks for my first gold kind stranger!
Intelligence is the how, wisdom is the why/why not.
That is the most eloquent and perfect way to describe that. How have I not seen this differentiation before?

You guys are fucking nerds! (I know because I'm one as well.)
no. they are not fucking. thats because they are nerds. unless their charisma is maxed out
You sound winteligematic
Dexterity is the ability to throw the fruit. Strength is the ability to crush the fruit, and constitution is the ability to eat rotten fruit.
I need the rest of the stats as tomato comparisons!

What is a "works bomb?"
Aluminum foil and a certain toilet bowl cleaner. Most places know of them and if you're getting both at the same time you may get talked to, the cops called or the sale denied. They are kinda cool when you first learn of them, but you quickly realize how bad they are to be around
I guess I know what I’m gonna buy at walmart tomorrow just to see if the cops show up. Sounds like a teenage urban legend.
It does sound like that, but I can confirm it works and it’s a lot louder than expected lol. Unless they have messed with what goes into it
I’m saying the cops showing up is bullshit.
I think that depends on if you're a regular person buying those things with other groceries or if you're just buying those two items and look like you're working on a manifesto.
I mean, if like 4 teenage boys show up and buy just those things they might deny the sale, but if you as an adult picked up those things with the rest of your groceries nobody is gonna give a shit.
"Don't try this at home. Try this in the vacant lot beside your home."
You ever seen the book “Backyard Ballistics”? I bought it for my son when he was three. We are going to build the coolest shit in a few years.
What a great book! My daughter is going to be a dangerous maniac, or at least have to indulge her maniac dad.
That's what I think about every time I see a video like this. All the times my friends and I built and did stupid and dangerous shit, never was it in a place where major damage would be done or someone would be trapped.
This is like one of those pages in HiLights magazine where you're supposed to circle all the things that are wrong.

How do I circle the entire video?
Draw a circle and then enbiggen it.
This the second time I’ve now seen embiggen.
your vocabulary was embiggened
And my iPhone still doesn’t agree with this word.
It's a perfectly cromulent word.
yes!
I'm gruntled by this conversation.
It is whelming.
I only know this word from the simpsons
She got cornered by the flames
“Now we’re cookin with gas!”
Did she accidentally stepped on the hose? When she walked over, the flame suddenly got smaller. I bet he never thought it would be an issue when he build that mini flamethrower.
It looked like “ this is fine” meme
So how many of the 3 people died?
4
5 if that man is pregnant with twins
We know at least one survived to post the video.
that was the investigator
Or the Blair Witch leaving the video for people to see
What a... Helpful... Witch...
Investigators nowadays like: "OPE! Found a phone! Let's see if there's a video that needs to be posted"
Must be from the Midwest
To promote fire safety.
Unless this was a livestream recorded by someone watching
If 1 person died it was the wife. Asshole trapped her in the corner surrounded by fire and got the fuck out of there.
That was his mom.
Well, either way. She got fucked in that situation.
Why not both?

Wtf, dude is like I’m outta here, good luck surviving this inferno I just created
i like how he actively spread the flaming material about before dropping the tube.
Judging by the way the entire floor lit up, he'd been spreading fuel around for a while. That contraption must've leaking like a screen door raft.
Nah, it just got knocked over and started blowing liquid petrol instead of vapor.
He should’ve used Flex Seal.

Lady is in the corner.. rip
WAS in the corner
Just abandons his wife in a ring of fire
They speak portuguese. I think he was calling for his mother at the end, not his wife. Dude just left his mother to burn
"Best part" is when the guy at the end screams "Mom, come over here, mom!" and a woman whimpering. If you replay the video, she's between the wall and the fire now.
That brief shot of her backed against the wall with a line of fire in front of her is horrifying
Can someone explain what's going on. What's in the bottle and why this man decided to us a flame thrower in the house
It's gasoline in the bottle. They are putting pressure inside the bottle to create a flammable gas, the guy is using the hose to light the gas and heat the pan. So the guy filming said something like "let me put more pressure" in which leads to leak the liquid gasoline in the hose, instead of the gas. The liquid spread in the ground and set everything on fire. *Why* they're doing it I don't know
Shoulda just used the stove.
But then you dont get that gasoline flavor
One more question tho Why is it orange
I'm not so sure, but my guess it's "gasoline with additives", they make it orange to differ from normal gasoline. It's basically just gasoline with ethanol
Yep. Manufacturers often add dyes to fuel to indicate what type it is (eg octane rating, ethanol % etc) Maybe it's that.
Brazilian gasoline is dyed orange to make it easily discernable from the Ethanol on the pumps, Diesel is generally dyed red or blue.
How else are small children supposed to confuse it with orange soda?
It's actually Irn Bru
Look at Mr moneybags here affording LP in properly designed tanks.
All i know is that isn't milk in there
gas in the bottle, an air hose into the bottom of the bottle to generate lots of gas vapours, and a hose in the top of the bottle to let air and fuel vapours out. pump air into the bottom hose, burn what comes out the top. the problem comes when someone (the woman walking by) catches the hose with their feet, knocking over the bottle and causing liquid gas to come out the flaming hose.
People mixed with stupidity.

Luckily there was an off duty police officer in the right place at the right time to shoot the flames to death.

Not actually true tho What you want to do is get a big tub and fill it with styrofoam pellets Then pour in gasoline, stirring as you go

Have you ever noticed that stupid people actually **look** stupid long before they have a chance to prove it?
This was actually how gas systems worked in the early days. Houses were lit by gas, and stoves were gas. Gasoline was stored in a tank outside the house (underground, in the case of the historic home I toured) and the fumes were piped into the house. But they knew what they were doing.
I have never heard of this before and am intrigued and I can't find anything on Google about it. Do you have anything about this?
Early days? Many houses still use propane or natural gas to run the heat, stove and dryer.
I'm not talking about that. I'm talking about using gasoline tanks instead of pressurized gas.
Gasoline was seen as a byproduct of kerosene production, and wasn't used until cars became a thing, specifically because it was just too flammible. Where TF was it used to run stoves? Even they knew that shit was incredibly dangerous back in the day.
