Disarming explposives question

provided ofc that the wires connected to the detonator are the control wires, and not booby trapped outputs with the actual controller behind the detonator in the explosive itself. In the latter case cutting any of the wires will make it go boom.

Yes, I was going on the very simple premise that the wires on the detonator are power supply wires, at most one either pulling the other to ground, or even merely closing a circuit. I know noting of detonators, only simple voltage divider trigger circuits, including short and open. :rolleyes:

Well, Mr. Fluffy is already kind of an ice cube, so that works out with the pick thing ... so now I just need to know, the left or right lobe?

So you gave led mike what you knew to be extremely limited and incomplete instructions that would likely prove fatal in all but the simplest case without warning. .... well at least your desire to kill him is out in the open now and will be easier to avoid in the future...

You can trap boobies? Excellent. :-D

But which kind of blue pill are you talking about?

Either one. You're still going to screwed. :-D

Yes. Next life he'll know better than to colour my beer blurred ravings as advice from a bomb disposal expert. Maybe then he will finally qualify. ;P

I'm new to explosives and I don't know which wire to cut, help me plzzzzzz, it's urgent.

None of them. The correct choices: A) Just pack the whole thing with a larger set of explosives, and blow the whole thing up with a bigger bang B) Send in a robot, let the son-of-toaster take the risks C) Shoot the damn thing with high powered water and hope it isn't packed with sodium.

Agreed. I'd just put 15 red wires, with 15 batteries, 3 displays with different times. Have fun! :-D

I would embed the real timing circuit within the explosive if it was plastique such as RDX, C4, Semtex etc, then stick a nice little digital alarm clock and a piece of 25 core RS232 cable on to the outside
