Blame it on racist mathematics.

They had been working out. That just didn’t feel like 42 pounds.

I would have opted to soak them in water barrels.

“The officers estimated they were putting in 16.5 pounds of explosives into the vessel...but investigators later weighed the remains calculated that just over 42 pounds of net explosive weight was in the vessel”
Close enough to 36.3? Kg/lb mistake?

Should have wet them down with a fire hose. That always works for fireworks.

Not quite as bad as losing a $125 million
Mars Orbiter due to a stupid math mistake. Of course, 1999 was WAY before the New Woke Math arrived on the scene
