WARNING: Soda Bottle Bombs!

This happened to my parents last year in there mail box. Thankfully it blew prematurely. My parents found the mail box warped by the bomb.

The officer investigated it accidentally moved the damaged bottle and the stuff fell on her skin and vest. Its started to eat through the vest and her skin. My brother rushed her to my parents house to get her sink to wash the acid like stuff off her hands and arm. My parents live in the bush so it takes too long for ambulance to get there. Cop is ok. Minor skin burns.

Crazy stuff some people do for a grudge.

Okay I just got to point this out, the bomb did not detonate it was the explosive charge to destroy it in the video that made the BOOM.

As a kid my friends learned how to do this and they would drop the foil, screw the cap and lob it, 30 sec to a min later it would pop (2 litter soda bottle)

It was a loud bang but almost no explosive power. Granted the dangers of muratic acid getting on you is not a happy thought but M-80's pack more punch!
