I heard that you can use matches and a tennis ball to make a good bomb. Has anyone done this?

Let's see a vote, troll, just an idiot, or both?

For what purpose would you use this "bomb?"

I'm sort of confused; what exactly is it you mean by "good bomb" ? Having trouble understanding the phrase.

Generally speaking, mutilating hundreds of matches is no way to go about pyro.

Just some advice, never use the B. word in Backyard Ballistics. Notice how the only thing you've received is negative/neutral replies?

Just new I guess ...

Friction activated devices are friggen dangerous, I sugest picking another first project, lest it be your last one.

Also read the forum description.

im pretty sure that a tennis ball filled with matcheads isnt going to do too much, the ones i HAVE seen gone off were FILLED with strike anywheres (impossible to find here) and your just better off with an m80 really....usually it takes two hits to set these off.


also, BOMBS=BAD your only going to have the cops show up at your doorstep with a warrant and terrorism charges.

Leave this forum, now.

I didn't write this forums description for nothing. Nigga, can you read?

You will not find any information on how to make "bombs"

^beat me to it.

You will not find any information on how to make "bombs" or any such device(s) .O RLY?

To the OP:
I made a bomb and blew up a car with this method, be careful. The match heads fuse with the tennis ball and cause a chemical reaction, its equivalent to roughly a pound of C4 plastique.

Ummmmmm. No. The match heads(strike anywhere) are set off by friction. This results in a large amount of combustion. There is not enough room in the tennis ball for the size of the fire ball so it erupts violently. This is definitely not the equivalent to a pound of C4.

Anything made with matches will be extremely dangerous. While I was in the hospital recovering from a little KMnO4/Al/S misadventure, a 12-year old killed himself while trying to stuff a CO2 cartridge full of matchheads (holding the cartridge against his chest). And "Bomb"? Bombs kill people and destroy things that don't belong to you. You won't be treated kindly here.

Nice job playing along, Gallows
