***************************************************************** COKE BOTTLE BOMB By Some Nihilistic Technofetishes, Technocritics ***************************************************************** MATERIALS: Bottle (experiment with smaller bottles first) Aluminum Foil Muratic Acid (Pool Acid) Don't know what to do with those 2 liter plastic Coke bottles? Hey, don't throw them away! It's gonna fill our dump sites. Leave the dumpsite room for other stuff. Besides, it will make Greenpeace happy. If anyone wants to create a very easy and loud explosion, take a two liter plastic Coke bottle, fill it with muratic acid (pool acid), tear up strips of aluminum foil. Now do the rest quickly for the reaction will happen, add the strips to the bottle, cap it, shake the bottle, put it in an open area, GET UNDER COVER, and watch. The bottle will expand and blow up with a great cloud of smoke. Don't breath the vapors of the acid bottle when you open it or those of the smoke. Experiment first with smaller amounts and bottles until yoiu find this one works when you get the right amount of foil to acid to bottle size right, which is tricky because the acid of the next bottle is always of a different strength. Start out by using smaller plastic bottles until you get the ratio of acid-to-foil and the reaction time to a point that you can follow because it is very unstable. TAKE EXTRA CARE! What I would do is throw the bottle, holding the "cap side" as it hurls, at the same time, mixing the stuff. REMEMBER, EXPERIMENT WITH SMALLER PLASTIC BOTTLES UNTIL YOU GET THE RATIO OF ACID-TO-FOIL AND THE REACTION TIME TO A POINT THAT YOU CAN FOLLOW. THIS STUFF IS VERY UNSTABLE. Have fun! * Not responsible for any damages.
