We prefer to shoot the object in question from a long way off!!

One of the guys I work with has a different name for those little propane camping bottles. He calls them "targets". You need to put flare behind them when shooting. Bullets won't ignite them and the gas "puff" out of the ruptured tank will extinguish a candle.

He has video of the learning curve

Yeah, yeah....there are a bunch of guys in my "neighborhood" who like to blow stuff up.

Right. Their intent is to harm people. I was referring to guys blowing up/shooting at things with no such intent.
Now, I wouldn't want to live next door to an avid experimenter. When blowing things up,
it is essential to keep hurtling objects/fragments of off others property.
It's just a bit of fun. Don't you remember the SCTV skit with those two guys?

"That one blowed up real good."

This guy forgot to use the oldest excuse in the world:

"I was cleaning my pipe bomb and it just . . . went off!"
