    Is this for real? I mean, Holy Cow! It sounds like a silly April Fool's joke, but looking outside I know it's nowhere near April. What a wild story.

    I shouldn't do this, but oh well : LOL... putting explosive material on your gum and then in your mouth is funny in a very dramatic way. But when you're playing with something explosive, you have to be extremely careful!

    I did something similar to this when I drank my water I cleaned my painting brushes in rather than my actual drink...easy mistake to make...though I'll admit mine wasn't quite as lethal, still very unpleasant though! :p

    And this is a perfect example of why you should always clearly mark your containers when working with dangerous chemical substances.

    The real question is, what the hell was the unmarked explosive dangerous chemical doing in the house? I work around a number of toxic and volatile chemicals and the last thing I would want to do is take some of them home with me, never mind dipping my chewing gum in citric acid...

    What I'm curious about is his habit of having citric acid with his gum. Anyone hardcore enough want to try how it tastes? :p

    I've got this new type of gum here, Deathmage. Want to try some? Can ship it down to you. It won't blow off your jaw, I promise.
