Thats like trying to use dynamite to open up a fishing hole in a frozen lake. If his injuries had been worse he'd be up for a darwin award honorable mention.

Nice, say that angle of incidence equals angle of reflection thing really does work!

You beat me to it...

I was wondering if he was just trying to remove the stupid chrome caps from a Disco lug -- seems like a perfectly reasonable strategy to me, just stand back a bit further next time.
