Big Blast inflator caps, reactive target #1

I purchased this today at Walmart for $10, have to say, it was fun, actually hilarious at times.
Inflated with a bicycle pump w/pressure indicator usually to about 100+psi.(40 pumps for 20 oz.)
3 to 4 oz. of water/dust/flour adds to the event and it can be really loud(12ga. loud) but not
every time. Its got a total failure rate about 2 out of 10, but that's kinda fun too as your never
totally confident of a winner blast.
If your handy, you can make your own from a tyre valve stem, alas that is not me these days.
There's quite a few videos on this and like devices, some of the folks are pretty folky. Anyhow
I have no affiliation with the product just passing along some good possible good times.

Cheers.

They are a Blast! Pun intended. I love shooting them with arrows but I have to warn the neighbors first so they don't think someone is shooting at them. Dave

BigAl52, I don't drink soda either but we have a recycle trailer in this little town of 750 that I can do a little dumpster diving. Dig some out, go pop them and then throw them back in. Dave

just got back from the Walmart in Columbus, TX .... they had a 6 pack of caps made by a different company .... theirs didn't have the ring to attach a cord .... if the explosion is as violent at reported, having the cap attached should make it easier to find .... in addition, it would provide a handy way to hang the bottle

Attached to that cap ring I put a 3 foot ribbon, sometimes those caps fly pretty far, pretty fast.
