I once put a firecracker in some sand about up to where the wick goes into the body of the explosive and it makes this awsome exploding land effect like it's been hit with a tiny morter. If I had a back yard and some sand that's what I would use for my large scale army men battles.


Also (I don't condone this, almost got arrested for doing it) take off the cap of a dufunct fire hydrent and set off a fire cracker in there, it makes a cool "wherrrrrrrr" sound in the hydrent after the firecracker expodes.

How can you tell a defunct fire hydrant from a non-defunct one, without risking getting soaked?

It usually has one of the side caps off

Oh, you, IJ... LOL I fell out of my seat when I saw that..


The best "BOOM" you can get without fire is a plastic soda bottle 1/2 - 2/3 full of liquid nitrogen... Take the bottle, close it tightly, and immediately drop it into a kiddie swimming pool full of water... Oh yeah, get back... FAST (the warmer the water in the pool, the faster and bigger the boom)

I love those army men toys... I bought a bucket of them about a year ago at walmart. It was like a gallon or two, and only cost like 3 or 4 bucks. Some of them had parachtes. It was great.

Where, might I ask, did you get liquid Nitrogen from?

Physics lab. I had an instructor that SOOOOO could be a redneck if he wanted.. We were done with the lab and he comes in the room with a "Y'all wanna see somethin' cool?!?"... of course we did.

I think you can get liquid nitrogen from welding supply houses, and chemical firms.. I've never ordered any, but I do get dry ice from this welding place near my house sometimes.. why they stock dry ice, I'll never know.

I've never ben so scared in my life. A redneck physics teacher. Where's the irony on that?

Welders use dry ice to clean metal parts before welding. The process is basically sand-blasting, except with little dry ice pellets. The advantage is that the pellets evaporate, rather than leaving a residue like other cleaners.

There is no irony in that statement. "Redneck", as I use it means nothing more than "A glorious lack of sophistication".. Most of my friends are rednecks, and we're all quite intelligent. Rednecks just like to drink beer, blow things up, and watch wrestling and NASCAR... Nothing wrong with that... Besides, Dr S. wasn't a redneck, I was just saying he could very easily be one. He likes making fires and explosions.
