Imagine, a chemical that when gum is dipped in it becomes an explosive. How long can it be before gum is banned from aircraft?

I remember when my kids gave me those exploding candies in the 70’s...Thought I’d have a heart attack....And it wasn’t just one of my kids...It was all three of the demons.

When I saw this thread my jaw dropped to the floor. Really, it gives a whole new meaning to the phrase, “shooting your mouth off”.

Investigators suspect that the student simply confused the packets and put gum covered with explosive material into his mouth.

Ouch. I hate it when that happens.

Seriously, my first thought when I saw "Ukraine" was Putin, trying out a new secret weapon. But evidently not.

Chewing gum can cause cavities craters.

Gum Control means using both halves of your jaw?

How embarrassing to die like this. Reminds me of the PhD Physics student at Stanford who auto-erotically electrocuted himself in the bath tub.
