surprised nobody mentioned iodine and ammonia
speaking of things you shouldn’t probably mix together.

Hmmm...
Iodine and Ammonia
Nitrogen triiodide

I made the stuff in HS
The error was in letting it dry out in my bedroom

Nitrogen Triiodide?

I hope you didn’t make a big batch...

That’s the stuff you can paint on light switches or doorknobs to scare people. You can also soak little pieces of paper in it and strew them on the floor to scare people as the touch of a feather sets it off...

What did you blow up?

That would be a long list...

I have a feeling a lot of us here "tinkered" with things like that back in HS in the 60's. Hell. We has a "Rocket Club" in my HS. And, I'm not talking Estes. That interest lead me to become a chemical engineer. God forbid a kid in HS today shows an interest in things that go POP today. I hesitate even posting any types of "formula" on the internet. For obvious reasons. I'm just paranoid.
