HOW NOT TO OPEN A GRENADE

We return now to the “Kids, Don’t Try This At Home” department for news from Brazil where a man died last week while trying to open a rocket-propelled grenade with a sledge-hammer. No word on why he was trying to open it or why he thought smashing it with a hammer was a good idea. All we know is that the resulting explosion killed him, sent his co-worker to the hospital with severe burns, destroyed the workshop they were working in, and set several cars on fire. (Reuters)
