Single, likes to play with guns and tannerite, if she owns a liquor store she would be the perfect woman!

164 lb:

The barn was "severely fragmented."

101 yards from firing point.

I thought unlicensed individuals were only allowed to mix 10lb of binary explosives, on site, without transportation, for theatrical purposes. I guess yoo tube counts as "theatrical purposes." That might not be the latest poop on that subject, but I noticed the perpetrator was masked in the barn demolition.

Wedding dress demolisher had a "bomb tech" there, though, whatever that means.

I guess that was her 15 milliseconds of fame.

That might be true, but it doesn't matter. The person would have to be caught in the act. In this case, the evidence no longer exists.

I'm surprised that the camera didn't get taken out, and that the other rickety shed next to the barn survived. I guess the walls and roof of the barn absorbed enough of the blast to restrict the shock wave.

... and the dark side of playing with Tannerite:

"Minimum safe distance" is not merely a suggestion.

Maybe there were 16 individuals there. They all get 10 lbs right.

New wedding dress required. Tip: Don't ask about reusing the ring.

He'll make a new one out of angle iron.

I want a derelict building to kill. Put the tannerite under a couple hundred pounds of coffee creamer and aluminum powder. Maybe leave a few oxygen cylinders dumping inside. Long, long range shot.

Man, you're looking to wipe an entire county off the map.

Back in the 1970s, I lived in a shoreline town that was a couple of [small] towns away from another shoreline town that was home for a company called American Powdered Metals. My then-wife and I made friends with a couple who were native to the area. We drove by APM one evening on the way to dinner and the husband casually mentioned that American Powdered Metals changed addresses about every two years, because their buildings kept blowing up.
