Man loses leg after shooting lawn mower full of explosives
No common sense?
I have heard of this stuff and seen advertised. I would think following the directions, and not adding shrapnel is a good idea.

A Georgia man who was videotaped last week shooting at a lawn mower packed with explosives lost his leg in the resulting explosion, authorities say.

If it was the "third leg" he would've taken himself out of the gene pool, and would thus be GTG for the award.

That would have doubled the amount of bathrooms available for his use as well.
