Depth charge detonation. Amazing!

A biology teacher from my school is in the navy. These are the sort of things he gets up to in his spare time!
The black dust is from a sunken WWII barge which they didn't know was there and was filled with 10 tonnes of explosives. They were only trying to clear mines!

No no no Something like mthyltrinitrotoluene in which there is a lot of oxygen and nitrogen so It turns into a bunch of gasses (H2O N2 and CO2) And releases a lot of energy so all the others also turn into gasses. In a few milliseconds, the whole thing is super compressed super hot gasses that rush out to fill the space that the C4 created when it exploded. Then it hits the edge of the water but has so much speed, it pushes it at 17000 MPH causing a huge shockwave.

so c4 and some combustible gases?

[Piano Man]

1) no such thing as a francium bomb

2) Usually they are a high explosive shock bomb (Ie C4) fallowed by a an organic bomb that produces a shitton of gas at high speed.

Still awesome.

[primusdeathstar]

are depth charges just gunpowder or are they like rubidium, ceasium, or francium bombs
