Watch A Barn Get Turned To Toothpicks By 74kg Of Tannerite

No, I have no idea why the on-camera guy is wearing a Nixon mask. Probably to avoid being arrested for what I’m assuming are about three dozen laws he’s breaking. This isn’t some secluded field miles from anywhere; you can hear cars passing by on the road right before the explosion.
