Meth lab? Quite possible. Of course those things can go BOOM just as much as easily as a bomb.

No offense intended, but I don't think you know what your talking about...
The most volatile chemical used in "meth" production is acetone, the same acetone that your wife uses to remove nail polish. It is less explosive (though has a lower flash point) than the gas you burn in your car.
