I remember a time when my dad was talking about his time in the british military and how two guys in a WWII concrete machinegun nest were killed when a grenade simulator was tossed in with them. the duo had closed the door in back and the only opening was the machinegun slit. cuncussion killed them.
Then I have some of the details of all the industrial accidents dad investigated. Suprisingly few of them involved explosives.
