Slow Motion Contact Explosive - Nitrogen Triiodide

Leeroy Jenkins ruins the hostage rescue

Fireworks grow up - 2" shell, then 2.5, then 3, 4... 48!

Retroboy says...

Pretty much is. Most fireworks of that size are either spherical or cylindrical. Think about how big a package FOUR FEET WIDE filled with pyrotechnic stars and black powder is.

Maths sez a perfect 48" sphere, after you take three inches off the radius to account for the protective shell around it, leaves twenty two cubic feet, almost two-thirds of a cubic metre, in which to pack splodeys.

That could make one sweet helluva bang.

48" seems like enough to shake an entire city.
