Reply #25: Speaking of shooting BB guns at each other [View All]

A buddy and I were quite drunk, tequila drunk. He was standing across the living room, with a cigarette dangling off of his lip. I was holding the BB pistol, and decided that I could shoot the cherry off the tip of his cig. Leveled up the pistol, pulled the trigger, and shot not only the cherry off, but due to his suprise, the whole cigarette out of his mouth. One of a number of great Zen shots I've had in my life.

Another experiment, can you shoot various fireworks off inside a trailer without catching it on fire? Yes, you can, but only if you have a good water supply handy.

Also learned how to make plastic explosive in my high school honors chemistry class. I got lucky in that my teacher was the mad professor type who thought nothing of teaching us these kinds of things. I think secretly he was into the big bang end of chemistry himself.
