Tennis Ball Bomb in Action - BANG!

Straight from the Anarchist's Cookbook, the good old tennis ball bomb.

Duct tape, match heads (strike anywhere & regular), tennis ball = good time (depending on who you ask)

Okay, so a couple other flammable compounds may have been included in this quaint IED; makes for longer sparks and bigger bang.

Next time maybe some lithium for a red one... or copper for a green flame... oh, the possibilities.

Did it damage anything...show the damage.

[SetTheCurve]

@TheRealStinkyface, surprisingly it caused no visible damage. Not even a burn mark or visible residue. shrug. Guess it's only really good at hurting people.

@300Z31 Yeah, it a great as a book, but horrible as a guide to crime domestic terrorism.

[300Z31]

@ebrowne369 Oh yeah, I'm sure of that! I have no plans to ACTUALLY do anything in the book. An interesting read, yes...but I've no desires to become a domestic terrorist. That's an extreme result, yes...but I live in/near a city so... But yeah, I love the book...mainly because I love the first amendment.

@300Z31 There is a bit of fun stuff like the tennis ball bomb, smoke canisters, napalm, etc. but do not even attempt any of the advanced recipes like nitroglycerin, plastic explosive, etc. until you are a chemistry and ballistic expert, otherwise you will most likely burn your face off.

[300Z31]

@ebrowne369 Gotcha. I've browsed the electronic version a few times. Mainly because some of the stuff seems so ridiculous. Although I thought the "Hindenburg Bomb" sounded like a fun 'firework' to make for 4th of July or something.

[ebrowne369]

@300Z31 It was in both. The electronic versions were created when a bunch of anti social kids put a bunch of stuff up on the internet, thinking they were all 'underground'.

[300Z31]

@ebrowne369 Point taken. Was it not also in the printed version?

[ebrowne369]

@300Z31 I know that, but the tennis ball bomb comes from one of the many electric versions, which is the one I'm talking about.

[300Z31]

@ebrowne369 There is a printed version of this book. It's not ONLY an online resource.
