yo..
as some of you MAY know. I usually buy alot of fireworks.. and mix them, dismantle them, and re build them.. to make them bigger, stronger.. and more flashy..

this year me (and a friend of mine) together went over 5000 Norwegian kroner..
witch roughly is $714 or so.. (going by that one $ is equalient of 7 norwegian Kroner (NOK))

so.. we bought the biggest rocket in norway.. and made it 7 times bigger.. or so.
added 5 or so "rocket engines" from other simmilar sized (the original size that is) rockets, to make shure it lifts at all..

now.. we also make other stuff...
and we had too mutch left, so we started blowing stuff up..
all from.

*mainboards
* bottles
* A sitting cucion thing
* a jar/box of paint..

and sutch..

altso, my friend almost torched out my room, I have pics from that. ^^

NOW. this is the part where you might come in..
I have "borrowed" my moms video camera, and I have a supereor digital camera myself.
so ive taken pics of the most, and taped the biggest things we are blowing up.
as well as the "nuke" to call it something..

this was then be edited on my PC, to make a movie, with minimal "other" stuff..
like my friend shouting from bedind.

"YO.. LOOK AT THIS"
I turn around, only to film his arse..
and I am going to save you of that horror.


so..
DONT do as I did.. its is dangerous, and we almost got killed the other day, as well that some "shrapnel" (piece of blown up carboard) hit my sis..

THIS IS DANGEROUS.. DONT DO IT UNLESS YOU ARE AWARE OF THE RISKS.

ALSO NOTE.. IT IS ILLEGAL

Comments..
WATCH IT BEFORE YOU READ..
------
Yes. I know I forgot to add the numbers 9 & 19.. errors on my side ^^
------

1:
Joar had a sound card taht was broken, and when discussing this, he said "This soundcard, im gonna blow it to hell".
and so he did.

2:
This was something we named "a Ball" because it was a ball shaped one.
The reason it fizzed, and took time to blow up, was me exeperimenting with delay..
it worked perfectly. AND as a bonus, scared my mom.
but something hit my sister. nothing big. but it was NOT in my.. um.. equations?

3:
thats the test tube. we pour a MINIMAL ammount of test substande in there, use 1 small fuse, and see what happenes as we light it..
it helps alot knowing that..
this is ONE small marble of powder. normally found in most rockets
(yes.. that is the workplace)

4:
this was an "unknown" substance. we had NO idea what it was going to do.

5,6 & 7:
These are the "tubes" they are easy to aquire, adn really easy to use.
as well as that I still have like, 234 or so left.

8 & 10:
these are the tubes that whent wrong.
and yes. I know why it happened ^^

11,12,13:
as text said.
btw. 13 is a "ball" without a "timer"

14:
Wrong fuse.. some burn faster and more violently then others.
and yes. I was bit by something.. and it hurt..

15:
he told me after
"I forgot to release, untill it was too late"
how he did it? NO Idea..

16,17,18:
regular rockets launched from hand ^^

20:
this was the small one..
weighed around 2,5 Kg.
had 3 engines. to make shure it lifted..
worked like a charm

21:
My baby..
Weight: appros 5Kg.
Engines: 1 main. 4 extras. total 5..

worked PERFECTLY.
the WHOLE place commented me on it ^^

22:
this is 12 small "bombs"
read "11,12,13"
almost felt sorry for the sitting thing I blew up.
-----------------------
bonus..

these are LOUD. eaven for there size
the bomb inside the sitting cusion thing

after my friend did an experiment..
this happened
pt. 1
pt. 2
---------------------------------------------
Aah... that was satisfactory..
I love this.. the smell of teh powder. the feeling that I might get blown up. The adrenaline in my veins..

few things beat it.. ^^
---------------------

Ill answer all questions, EXEPT how it was done. ^^
 
so. it seems like no one will see it.
Ah well... I guess that is life ^^
