You guys are keeping another one from his Darwin Award. The Award committee has been notified.
i can bring back the Wile E Coyote award....

when i was in high school chemistry class we saw a film about gas mixtures and how dangerous they could be... static electricity will set off 2H+O... turning the lights on in a room will set off H+Cl.

HHO implodes not explodes
that could be true if the temperature of the gas remains constant, but it doesn't... Hydrogen has a heat of combustion of 140MJ/kg and the resulting steam will be at a very high temperature and so it expands rapidly.... in other words, an explosion.

Doesn't make any difference anyway - an implosion doesn't just "disappear up it's own imagination" - it simply goes in and then carries on out the other side, so still an explosion.
