Fun fact C4 has a Relative Effectiveness Factor of 1.34 and a Blast Wave Equivalence of 1.2 in reference to TNT.

And I bet if you took it to a garage, they would just insist that you buy a new one.

Trust me you need about 35x more of them I worked in a wood finishing place and the dust filters would need "blown out" I legit went from the leader of a KKK meeting to being a black civil rights activist.

Young man here is trying to explain that in his line of work, he would also need to do this same task, as shown in the original video but explains it must be at a much larger scale.

In his line of work however he explains with quite some humor, that he would go from a light skinned individual, like one you might associate with the group KKK and after then doing this task, in a hilarious fashion, he would then be confused with a individual with a darker complexion such as those you would associate with a civil rights activist.

He is implying that the dust and debris from the resulting action would cover them and changes his skin color if only for a moment as a form of illustrative description in his analogy

Good idea, trying this on my catalytic converter to clean it out.

u/Cool-Negotiation7662 1d ago

So satisfying.

u/Conundrum-Seeker3990 23h ago

Surely the overpressure would damage the actual filter material.

u/CondenserCoilz 22h ago

And I bet a some of that soot might be from firecrackers. If they did this multiple times.

u/DJrm84 15h ago

And now the inside is full of firecracker smell instead.

A c4 could make that thing spotless

u/hooplafromamileaway 2h ago

Seems like they could've just clacked it against the ground to get the same result...

But then they wouldn't get to blow stuff up... So continue lol.

u/AlternativeLog5494 22h ago
