Explosives Test Using Shock Tube

[scor9977]

tim mcveigh dont play around

[gothbro111]

I have alot of ammonium nitrate, how do I make a big bomb with it? I have aluminum powder, potassium chlorate, parrafin, and alot of other good explosive stuff I just need a ratio that wont blow up when I mix them

[michaelfreudiger]

@gothbro111 its comments like this that suggest you have no common sense. just cause it is possible does not mean you need to go and make a device.  furthermore, it is not cool to make such things, these people are doing it to understand and reconstruct a past tragedy. the physics of the explosion is why i have posted this video. also, its comments like this that land you on the FBI watch list. in fact, im gonna do the USA a service and just leave this comment here. grow up stupid!!!

[blazeclicker]

@michaelfreudiger hey chill dude i look up how to make explosives and ive even wrote several manuals from step by step instructions dosent mean im going to go around bombing people ive made small co2 cartrige bomb for fishing in my stock pond Lol but in all honesty your right just because you CAN make an explosive DOSENT mean you should because you have a 50-50 chance of blowing urself through ur kitchen table and ending up horribly disfigured or worse dead

[jvigil2007]

@blazeclicker really? have you ever even seen a real explosive in real life? and you cant just make a bomb with AN fertilizer. if you knew what you were talking about, you would know why and you wouldnt even be asking the question on YouTube. wrote several manuals huh? all cuz you read stuff on the internet? i take it you havent had any formal training or education on this from the sound of your comments. oh, and a CO2 bomb isnt considered an explosive. you cant even compare it to tatb or rdx

[scor9977]

@gothbro111 your going to need the right kind of ammonium nitrate, it has to be a certain percent , or otherwise the ammonium nitrate will do nothing, even adding fuel oil to it wont do nothing, but if its potent it will be easy to go boom

[LowLevelHellProject]

@carlespaz Standard shock tube is loaded with a thin dusting of HMX and aluminum, electrostatically adhered to the tubing.

HMX is a powerful high explosive compound. The shock tube is not given a spark, rather it is initiated via detonation, and its a detonation front that travels through the tube.

Pretty much everything you said is wrong, please check your facts before spreading misinformation.

[Deader87]

2,000 MPH blasting a mannequin to pieces. Now imagine that's a human-being

[adriiPortillo]

that shock tube is awesome...

[lithiumdeuteride]

It's John de Lancie! Good old Q.

[TripingAIR]

the fastest winds created was the TSar Bomb of a projected wind speed of over 5,000 miles per hour. thats a bad day for anything :P

[Deader87]

@TripingAIR OMG, I cannot even begin to imagine that, that is terrifying to behold my friend

[TripingAIR]

@Deader87 Sure is. but those kind of speeds dissapate quite rapidly the farther away from the blast you get. but even though it dissipates alot, 1500 mile per winds will still do the job. But that close you will be incinerated before anything. Worst will be miles out getting severe heat, then the imminent blast wave. that will destroy everything with mass amounts of overpressure just crushing everything. Absolute last resort weapon.

[Deader87]

@TripingAIR Does not sound like there's any escape from this weapon I'm grateful at the fact it's rare

[Roan1414]

In the bombing he use ANNM not ANFO you can especially tell this from the damage because ANFO has a RE factor of 0.8 and ANNM factor is 1.6 .

[Viking0fNorway]

@Roan1414

Correct, but let the kids and terrorist belive what they want, its safer like that;) Visit my chann;) music, explosives, music;-)

[hellofraz1]

is we are talking about McVeigh i think he used both because he ran out of nitromethane (apparently) so he used diesel fuel for the rest, also for the booster i believe he used some sort of blasting gelatin (tovex) and fuse based blasting cap with enough det cord to initiate the boosters and shit ton of tertiary explosive he had in the truck

[xxpinksxx]

Sweet 5*

[noobwithagun]

didnt a ship full of this stuff explode in the 50s?

... and kill everyone around.

[bustincapz]

yea my dad told me thats there was a black powder ship with ammonium nitrate as fertilizer and said there was a fire and it exploded and flatend a city

[tittysmithy]

lol yeah they could just read the "details" about the video, it say's it to the right of the video;D

[anon32016]

Indeed. As for the smoke: ANFO does produce that kind of effect too if it has a highly begative oxygen balance. That is too much diesel to ammonium nitrate.

[ILOVESUBLIME222]

nice to know you can buy this shit at walmart

[xpazzomattox]

oh my goddddd O_O

[Mizumi17]

O.O

[potassiumperchlorate]

I think the black smoke is from a detonating organic nitrate compount used as a booster, it looks like the main explosive is ANFO.

[silendshade]

ANFO doesnt result in black smoke with flames.....

TNT does (see: watch?v=vb3y6m-buco)

even if they say it was ANFO it could still be TNT. I have seen discovery spell "ANFO" as "ampho".

[leokimvideo]

did you know, party poppers can start shock tube..!

[laslos3]

ccccoooooooooollllll!!!!!! I like the high speed camera!

[Bundy133T]

do you have the whole episode of this, with the actual truck bomb going off too in the test??

[jack6565]

sequesterd eh....sounds like 69 mixt wiht mishanery position.

[NITROMETHANO]

this isn´t anything

[NITROMETHANO]

Nor annm or anfo emerge black smoke

[silendshade]

i guess TNT would fit the black smoke, but why would they use pure TNT for a test like that

[derekleen]

wouldnt it be a lot cheaper and reliable to use a remote electronic detonator?

[silendshade]

actually using electronic wires can cause a fatal accident because it may act as an antenna picking up mobile phone signal and setting off the charge prematurely

[laslos3]

wow....that sucks!

[bewbs1]

i saw this!

[dachunkinator]

youtube's best kickas pyro I've seen

[kushnuggets]

good vid mike, its Jeremy

[counteryourface]

The best fucking video on youtube.

[dachunkinator]

Something like DETcord right?

[AirsoftLife]

Kind of, but it's High Melt Explosive, HMX, with 10% Al powder, not PETN inside.

[dachunkinator]

How does the shock cord work?

[michaelfreudiger]

the video explains it right at the beginning. there is a thin dusting of explosives through the tube, and an igniter ignites the explosives,,,which travels down the tube.

[wsmith68]

PETN dust inside.

[counteryourface]

Actualy shocktube uses HMX with 10% Al powder.

[numbo42]

There's a dusting of Al powder along the inside. It's the same system used to break balloons in a disco or the like...

[dachunkinator]

you can actually see the blast wave. I guess the ammonium nitrate was mixed with nitromethane to improve the detonation velocity.

[manvstaco]

Holly shit!
