Well, I know that if you pour gasoline on yourself and strike a match, you'll be very colorful and probably run around (for a minute or two, anyway)... |

Nah, all the stuff I know how to make is pretty dangerous. Making explosives is easy, making *safe* explosives is tricky business. Even making gunpowder can be dangerous, it's easy enough to mix the ingredfients properly, but the grains will be too big, and you need to grind them smaller. One hint of a spark (say, from a fleck of rust in the powder) and you can kiss your eyebrows goodbye. (I can vouch for this one from personal experience! Try explaining a complete lack of eyebrows to your parents, as I had to do.) |
