  • Amazingly enough, they found a 500g bottle of this stuff, high purity, in a chemical storage room for a chemistry class last year here in Norway, and guess what? Whe teacher who found it bangs it hard onto the table, and evacuate the school. The millitary comes with their bomb squad, and sends a robot in to get it... And they detonatet it out on the lawn...

  • Lol, they do it more for show and as a justification of their job than anything. It's not that dangerous if kept away from metals, which may be what the cap is made of. It disposed of equally as well if doused and diluted in water.

    Yeah, being more explosive than TNT I remember my chemistry lecturer saying that they use TNP to explode TNT munitions. Hmm, I honestly don't think it is there anymore seeing that the whole class had to work with this chemical about 6 months ago and if I'm not mistaken they used the jar that I was referring to. Of course they filled it up with shitloads of oil and it was quite a pain to work with since it stains very easily.

  • @xRaIDeNx69 You've GOT to be kidding... it's more explosive than TNT. They just evacuated a hospital today and had the Bomb Squad come in to remove it for a small jar of it. Just call the police and report it. You'll be doing everyone a favor.

  • RIP, watchglass.

  • @xRaIDeNx69 lol, take it! and then go blow something up with it.

  • @xRaIDeNx69

    Yeah, they'll learn when it blows up and takes most of the building with it.

  • Lol at the University that I go to there's this jar of DRY Picric Acid in this really really old cupboard exposed to sunlight and the funny thing is that on it there's written "Explosive when Dry" yet none of the technicians seem to give a fuck.

  • What temp did that burn at?
