Uh, DID YOU?

That's ammonium nitrate acting as an oxidiser to burn at low speeds and moderate temperature... Not AN detonating with a firecracker. Way to support your own argument... Oh, wait.

No, what I am claiming is, the experiment worked with a firework from a motar, low speed or high, it still exploded, that is what I am claiming. Maybe it was not a true ANFO detonation, but indeed it worked.

Maybe it did 'explode'. But there is a HUUUUUUUUUGE difference between this and ANY kind of HE, and you NEED to know that. You can't just muck around with explosives thinking they're all the same, big or small, fast or slow, loud or quiet. There is such a difference in application and process so you need to know which explosive for what purpose. You can't just tell people to use a mortar charge to ignite a sodden mixture of fuel and an oxidiser - Of course it will burn, and if confined, will make a minor bang - But it's NOT an ammonium nitrate explosive.

Lol ANFO needs a blasting cap to detonate. Firecrackers wouldn't do anything but light it on fire. Check the side of an ANFO container, it say warning flammable, and warning explosive. Ever wondered why it said both?
