Meh, with the stuff we have in the lab the worst we can do easily is set fire to solvents.

Which is why it's kind of impressive that someone managed to make something explode!
It's not like you really need fire to make something explode. Hell, a little dry ice, some water and a sealed container will do the trick.


Protip: Dont use Arizona Ice Tea bottles. we used to make dry ice bombs on occasion (ok a lot) and we'd use any bottle we could get ahold of. Well the Arizona Ice Tea bottle is brittle enough that it goes off very quickly. Blew up in my hand and boy did that scare the crap out of me. Fortunately it didn't hurt.

eta: oops, congrats, Vat!
