Nice camp for the kids
Summer Explosives Camp

"During his week at camp, Niels Zussblatt, a teen from St. Louis, helped blast a rock from deep in a mine, obliterated a watermelon, cut steel beams and set off a 'wall of fire.'

One of his favorites?

'Blowing up the chicken was good,' he said. 'It flew – forced bits of chicken guts to fly like 40 to 50 feet.'

Before completing the chicken explosion, Zussblatt heeded his professor's warning: When you are looking at the explosion, do not have your mouth open."
