    Guy was plain dumb. Having said that, I LOVE the stuff. Here's a cool tip. Mix a bunch together. Get 200 yards away. Put a water bottle full of Gasoline right on top of the tannerite container. Makes an awesome fireball. Just dont do it in the middle of a bean field, it will catch the field on fire!!

    If you want to blow stuff up - join the freakin Army, do it properly, and get paid for it. Tannerite? Oh please.......... What torques me is that people just like this guy put the largest plastic gasoline container manufacturer in the U.S. completely out of business from lawsuits after these "idiots" used that company's containers to pour gasoline on their campfires. With the whole family sitting around it. "pour some more gas onit Vern.." About 150 people lost their jobs and now you can only buy containers with all the "safety crap" on them that make them genuinely tedious to use. JUST IN CASE some idiot decides to pour gasoline on his campfire. Are we going forward or backward? Natural selection works if you let it.

    Best quote this year so far!

    Read all seven pages of the post and didnt see one response that stated, "Idiots like this are what cause the shooting community to be fair game to the anti gun crowd". Yes i know its an isolated incident but the long term damage to our sport is done.
    Yes there are some cute replies to the post but look at the real damage this incident will cause.

    Picture of the same guy an hour before!!!

    In all seriousness things like this are what gets if not the Federal your local reps to try and pass local restrictions. Personally I won't spend a dime on it, got all that out of my system with the Military and other jobs but if someone else wants to that's their right as long as they don't
    Their stupidity doesn't cost my insurance rates to go up. JMHO

    As for this guy, hell of a price for a life lesson but just proves life ain't fair, even more so when your stupid.

    That's it, they need to pass more restriction to prevent this sort of thing from happening, again!
    People always respect laws, and restrictions before heading out to the woods. :rolleyes:
