lulz

about the peanut being a possible ingredient in dynamite, did you know that Nitroglycerin (highly explosive fluid that can blow up when you only touch it) Is used against heart conditions besides that it's the main ingredient in dynamite? It widens your blood circulation and it immediately stops your heart attack / stress attack.

if it explodes, 570 ml fluid goes over in 650 LITERS of cubical air. thats a really big explosion. unfortunately, the fluid that comes in the sprays for heart conditions, is thinned out like 100x the normal amount, meaning in 1 liter of water theres like say 10 cl of nitroglycerin ;p they take it really safe on that stuff being a cure against heart attacks and such.
