“When I was in highschool some kid stole a huge chunk of potassium from the chem lab and blew a bunch of the water out of a local pond.”

More likely metallic sodium. I’ve done that trick. It’s pretty spectacular.

Not about the pond or the explosion or that a kid could have gotten hurt of course, but over the cost of what was stolen from the lab.
