Talking got bored this evening

so i took a spare air bag i had sitting in my shed....hooked it up to a toggle switch and a battery.....flipped the toggle switch and blew off the air bag....
i was just currious since i have never seen an air bag blow off in person...

little did i know that it was going to sound like a 1/4 stick of dinamite blowing off...it was pretty cool though....
now im going to have to go out in the country and blow off the other 2 air bags

just thought i would share my fun

Ha a buddy of mine was in tech class, and they had a run down car to just mess around with. Well they managed to get the air bag out, hooked it up while everyone else was sitting in class and BOOOOM. Scared the instructor so bad they got suspended for a few weeks ahahah. I prefer the 1/4 stick better though, it leaves nice holes in the ground

Mythbusters has done some, but that's too controlled...we need some blood and guts in your yard!

yeah my buddy works at a junkyard, and they pull the airbags out and one time they shoved six under a truck box and it blew the thing a good 3 feet off the ground. they are powerful as all hell.

we did the same exact thing in class.. youd be suprised how much quieter the airbags on newer model cars compared to 99-older models
