seems to me letting people know in advance would have been nice. or why not just go out to the middle of nevada?
It was the fire departments choice not to warn them, they were afraid too many people would show up and they would have to stop it for safety reasons.
Maybe they should go help Turbo Tax Tim in DC.
I don’t think they were expecting it to be that big. Usually when they’re going for big booms they go out to a former quarry in the middle of nowhere. They really do try not to annoy the neighbors or destroy property that’s not theirs.
From time to time watching the show I see some clues that they're on a pretty tight budget. Also, there's the matter of permits and licensed explosives experts necessary for these kinds of stunts. They don't want to have to start from scratch getting experts, permission, etc., in another state.
