gasoline + dixie cup + match = fire extinguisher fun!

As for the draino thing, I'd heard it was the crystal draino...but I checked a bottle of it out, and it specifically listed one chemical it did NOT have. It was a chemical that sounded explosive. I think it probably used to work, but by now they've changed the formulation of it so kids aren't blowing things up with it.

what works best is a 2-liter, oven cleaner, and aluminium foil balls. the oven cleaner eats away at the foil, making a gas. what happens next in the enclosed 2-liter.... well I think you can guess that one

[Megaseth]

thermite is FeO3+sulphur+Al filings....you mix then bake it into a brick....then use magnesium i think or potassium permaginate to light it.

The coolest thing my chem teacher has ever done was throw about a marble sized chunk of sodium in water. It fizzes, smokes, catches fire, then explodes. He had no idea it was going to explode as big as it did. He jumped 10' in the air, no kidding, then was half way out the door.

LOL that only means your teacher is a dumb***. How could a chem teacher not know the energy a sodium/h20 combination would make? You can't even touch pure sodium with your hands becuase if you tried to wash them off, you would be left without a hand.

I'm in for the bleach/gas bomb. Someone should record it and post it here.

LOL, yea. I remember a video of that. The light from that burn is supposed to be so bright you would go blind looking at it. It is also so hot, it turns sand to glass and melt though clay pots/normal crucibles.

are you talking about the bleach-amonia combo that make chlorine gas? stupid cleaning people inadvertently make that one all the time. I've read about it in the papers a few times.

[4felix20]

brake fluid and chlorine tablets or chlorine powder is a good one too.

the drano or over cleaner and aluminum makes hydrogen gas. it'd be better to capture that gas in maybe a ballon or bag or something and remotely detonate the bag or balloon.

for a loud popping type bomb, the ammonia and bleach is good. put some of both in a squeezed 2 liter bottle. cap it quick then run. it goes boom.

So if you mix a Datsun with some sulfer and aluminum, you can blow it up with some madnesium? Sweet!

[4felix20]

you don't absolutely have to bake it into a brick. you can just use a strip of magnesium, ignited with a small blow torch, stuck into your pile of rust and aluminum powder mix.

thermite is pretty cool stuff...

[Megaseth]

baking it into a brick just makes it easier to cut and use in smaller more insidious situations.... and im pretty sure theres sulphur in it, cause a friend got the recipe from the teacher.

You guys are sick...

Edit: You guys don't need that nerve gas recipe. I don't want to get anyone (like me) in trouble.

You guys are sick...

and your just really special

[mkory]

LOL that only means your teacher is a dumb***.

HAHAHA, I could have told you that. He just didn't know it'd explode THAT big THAT fast. It was pretty cool though. Then he went around the room squirting anything that looked like a small chunk of sodium with water. Maybe I'll smear some on the rim of his coffee mug (jk, but I do hate the guy). So does anyone know where we can buy these chemicals and elements and stuff?

Hey, I've got completely legitimate (degenerate) reasons for tinkering around with nerve gas...and researching volatile gases as a catalyst to boost the force created by igniting gunpowder to increase propulsion of a projectile. It's just not your business what those reasons are.

I guess thats why the bottle needs to be squeezed

[[Zero-S]]

Hmm...so you have a recipe for nerve gas, posted it on the boards, and I wasn't around to take it down?? Grr...the things I miss because of Halo.

[SDRonEbay]

It wasn't on here long. It took all of 1.83641 seconds before I realized that was a bad idea.

[Ace 2.0]

pool shock,gas,steel can,fire= fill the can with shock put a drop of gas or 3 light it and wait a minute!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[phuphyter]

whats pool shock?

[Ace 2.0]

really really strong chlorine

[Urabus GodofTraction]

potassium permaginate and glycerin.... ehehhe. Let's just say that its used in plumbing for some reason, I've access to a 55 gallon drum of the stuff, and that combination is used to light off the Shuttle solid rocket boosters.

Another good one is strong (like, 14M) sulfuric acid, sugar, and Potassium Chlorate. Pretty and HOT.

i have proven the rumor true. Me and a friend stole some gas off some junked cars (we were like 10 so don't get ansy) and poured it all into a bucket. then we threw a match, and nothing, just drowned, we proceeded a couple more times and same thing. Then we put a cardboard piece 'til it was soaked and sinking, and threw the match in. Tada, fire...

[Nathan]

Hmmm, perhaps my dixie cup was just too low to the ground and the fumes couldn't roll off easily enough. I shall have to try it again with a REAL bucket!

[Megaseth]

Nathan, you know that since i will be bored and lonely over the break, we're going to be doing a lot of these...experiments....and im sure we'll have a few run ins with the 5-0. i cant wait.

[JESTER]

Throwing a match in a bucket of gas will get you one of two out comes. A big boom and you burnt. Or nothing at all.

It all has to do with gasoline doesnt burn, the vapor does. And it is too rich to burn right on top of the gas. Hince the match going out. Now if the match just happens to hit a spot in the air before getting to the liquid gasoline, with the correct mixture of vapor and air, you are gonna need new eye brows.

Being HAZMAT opps plus, did pay off for something.

[JESTER]

Also, we use to make the drain cleaner bombs all the time. A little tin foil, and The Works (drain opener) was thebest, mix in a 20 oz to 3 liter bottle.

And let me tell you , the three liter made a heck of a boom.

All I got to say, is you guys would be amazed at what you learn when you get on a volunteer fire department.

[mkory]

Yeah, just don't let it go off in your hand like the kids with the alcohol and chlorine in the video did. That kid couldn't have been okay. So what do you say... squeeze the air out, or just throw it, don't worry about shaking it up? Nasty.
