Receive this from a friend : It's not a Halloween joke...

What a sick sad world – what next….
Spread it around to especially older folks who could be unwittingly exposed to this.

DANGER ALERT - Picking Up Trash - **NO JOKE**


For those of you that may have kids around, a warning for all.

Apparently this is now happening in BC, and I am sure it will spread so
Please warn the Grandkids.

Well, this one is real - check it out via the Snopes link enclosed.

In case you don't have time to read it / look at this right now:

Kids are putting Drano, tin foil, and a little water in soda bottles and capping it up - leaving it on lawns. When you go to pick up
The trash, and the bottle is shaken just a little - in about 30 seconds or less it builds up a gas and explodes with enough force to remove some of your extremities. The liquid that comes out is boiling hot as well.


Don't pick up any plastic bottles that may be lying in your yards or in the gutter, etc.
Pay attention to this.

1. A plastic bottle with a cap.
2. A little Drano.
3. A little water.
4. A small piece of foil.
5. Disturb it by moving it; and BOOM!!

No fingers left and other serious effects to your face, eyes, etc.

People are finding these bombs in mailboxes and in their yards, just waiting for you to pick it up intending to put it in the trash.
But, you'll never make it!!! It takes about 30 seconds to blow after you move the thing.

He just post this today,so maybe it's another wave of kiddo crap? I don't know, Halloween is coming so It can be just a urban legend like blade in apple ....I don't panic but I will double check just in case and like Warp suggest I use my air riffle if I find any plastic bottle.

I have seen kids fabricate soda bomb last summer (2 liters Coke+Mentos)

Time have changed since the burning bag of poo on the porch.
