Got this second hand, internet legend ot not :stupid .................


A kid in Lindsborg, KS had filled several balloons with acetylene and was shooting them with roman candles. We heard them go off about every 30 minutes or so. Then during the Lindsborg fireworks display at the college we  heard the ambulances racing over towards my house. On the way home we saw  all of the firemen & police at a house behind Viking Motorcycle company.
 Later I learned that the kid was Loren Dauer, son of Ron & Mae Dauer. I guess he had about 3 or 4 balloons left in the backseat of the truck, and when he reached in to pull one of them out he slid it just enough to cause static & BOOOOOOM!!!!!! He spent a little time in ICU in Wichita,
but is at home now. He blew out both eardrums, had to have a lot of shards of glass pulled from his torso, face, & eyeballs. His nephew was either in the truck or close enough by that it blew part of his face off  &  required 30 some stitches to get it back. You see the damage to the  truck, but the garage it was by was moved partly off of its foundation, and the people sitting in their lawn chairs watching this activity were jolted several feet backwards out of their chairs. Why he is still alive  I don't know. You probably will say that was freakin' stupid, but think back on how many times you've done stupid things & lived to tell about it. I hear he is doing as good as can be expected. I hope maybe he learned a lesson. God Speed Loren!!
      These pictures tell the real story!

That is one explosive mix.I remember years ago my grandpa said we dont need to buy fireworks i'll make you kids some.got a plastic bottle mostly oil ones.Punched  hole in it stuffed tissue(this was the fuse) :stupid Then filled with oxy acetylene mix.Light these things up and they rally went BOOOM.Cops would arrive quickly looking for dynomite as my grandpa would come out with more bombs they searched every where in his front yard then would drill my dad to ask where the loud firecrackers where..IMO very dangerous he didnt do the ballons cause of the static.

Yeah, I remember making a few explosive devices in my day.  Never used acetylene though.  I always stuck with gunpowder, usually Blue Dot if I remember correctly :D   But, just for the record in case any Feds are reading this forum, that was MANY years ago and now I'm a good Law Abiding citizen :D  :rotflmao
