Potentially deadly bomb ingredients are ‘frequently bought together’ on Amazon

Guys, it's from the United Kingdom. Where guns are illegal. Sounds like people making homemade projectile launchers to me.

No Bimarts in the UK

I can go to any grocery store and find everything I need to lose most of my fingers and singe off my eyebrows.

Yup! Back when my dad was a kid you could buy a lot of stuff off the shelf that's completely banned today. He mixed some chemicals and missed the ratio a bit. When the reaction started, he ran out his back door to the burn barrel, slipped on the wet grass and managed to get the beaker in the barrel as he fell across it. Blew a bunch of skin off his face and right arm.

Ammonia and chlorine cleaners make a pretty bad chemical concoction that anyone can accidentally, much less on purpose, mix together...

It's on the labels

Reminds me of the chemist's blog describing the chemicals he wont work with. Like this one for FOOF or dioxygen difloride. Otherwise known as satan's kimchi.

I read the first paragraph and figured out right away the guy was afraid of drowning.

At least it's organic!

LOL, YouTube should be outlawed.
I often stumble on stuff there that makes me think if it was there when I was a kid a lot of us would not have made it through growing up. Homemade explosives, fireworks, flame throwers, and such. Damn if we had access to that knowledge base when I was a teen? A lot of us would at best be missing some digits or have had the chance to burn the house down.

I have bought a couple thread protectors from them. I had not noticed they seem to refuse Compensators though till just now. When I tried to search for one those stupid fuel filters of course do pop up for sale still. LOL

I think I've seen a few brakes like AFAB's on there... some stuff flies under the radar.
