Shoebomber 2.0 in De-troy-it

[KrazyHorse]

By the way, hand grenades contain about twice as much "explosive power" as this guy's bomb did. If you think a hand grenade is going to peel away half an aircraft hull then you are sadly mistaken.

A government test with 50 grams of PETN blew a hole in the side of an airliner. That was the amount in the bomb carried by the so-called shoe bomber Richard Reid over Christmas 2001.

This is fun.

Are you honestly this stupid?

[Drake Tungsten]

I'm the stupid one? You're the one that's telling us that a government test wasn't actually a test.

[KrazyHorse]

"A government test"

Seriously, Drake, at least pretend like you're trying here.

The government releases a video that shows an explosion doing far more damage than we KNOW that larger explosions have done to airliners in real life, and your faith that this represents a realistic test is based on the phrase "a government test"?



Come on, this isn't even a challenge.

[KrazyHorse]

I'm the stupid one? You're the one that's telling us that a government test wasn't actually a test.

You're hopeless, you ****.



You've been given no information as to what the circumstances of the test were outside of the amount of explosives used and the fact that this represents "a government test" and you think that this means that it represents the most realistic assessment of possible damage?

Grow the **** up, you ****.

[KrazyHorse]

Seriously, I love the fact that you think the government's in the business of providing terrorists with valuable research into the effectiveness of their plots.

[Drake Tungsten]

If it makes you feel any better, I don't enjoy seeing you be wrong that much more than you do.

[KrazyHorse]

Unlike you, I'm more than happy to admit when I'm wrong. This isn't one of those times.

80g of explosive isn't enough. Try using 200+g next time

[Drake Tungsten]

I've always been happy to admit when I'm wrong. I'm also smart enough not to run my mouth off with "intuition" when I'm out of my element.

[KrazyHorse]

Then what are you doing here, you twit?

Providing factual information derived from media sources.

[KrazyHorse]

Please, post some more "government tests". The last one was hilarious.



No comment on my C4 video, drake? There was far more information given as to the circumstances of that "test".

[Drake Tungsten]

No comment on my C4 video, drake?

I didn't watch it. Seemed like an irrelevant distraction.

No, it seems as though you're actually speculating wildly as to the circumstances of videos you've posted, based on nothing more than the phrase "a government test"
