:shock: :shock:

Part of me says, "Cool, I can make a bomb!" and part of me says, "Oh no, one more thing to have to worry about."

Works bombs have been around for a while. Back in some younger days, me and the guys I worked with would make them and sit them out back behind the building. It's a wonder we never got hurt. :dizzy: good times

Your stomach used Hydrochloric acid to digest your food. In case they ban the Works, you can go to the hardware store and buy muriatic acid (HCL), works better but has fumes. If they ban muriatic acid, shove your finger down your throat and puke into the funnel that will put the stomach acid into the bottle. If you want to be more refined, pick up some tygon tubing, lube it up a little with KY, shove it up your nose and hope you get it into your esophagus instead of your wind pipe. If you have an urge to cough, extract the tygon tubing a little and try again. Extend the tubing into your stomach and pump out the acid. Mix the acid with aluminum foil and it will generate Hydrogen gas that will burst the bottle.

Now watch, some jerk will come out with a hydrogen generator that uses puke and aluminum foil claiming they increased the fuel economy by over 100%. :ROTFL: :ROTFL:

Cheers

disgusting

haven't you ever heard of a MRE warmer?

we used to prank each other with those to the point where I distinctly remember eating cold/frozen MRE's due to command taking away our warmers :lol:

Uhmmm may I ask how you know this? Just a little interested is all, it's not every day you see someone know the intricate details of how to obtain acid so well from the human body. :POPCORN:
Oh and one more thing, how much puke per parts of aluminum foil do you think I will need to reach optimum performance? :JEEPIN:

Learned it in my High School Chemistry class, when I took University Chemistry for some reason I got 3.0/4.0 to 3.5/4.0 grades because the High School teacher made us work hard and learn a lot. Any way the HCL in the Stomach is a 4 molar solution, tell that to one of your chemist friends and they can figure out the ratio. But since most do the bottle bomb trick when they are too drunk to weigh the ingredients they may hurt themselves.
BTW: Powder toilet bowl cleaners used to contain small aluminum flakes to produce bubbles, hydrogen bubbles. Guess what happened if some smoker flicked a cigarette into the toilet when the cleaner was working.
