Blown Eardrums FTW!!!

You're supposed to film that! Glad you're mostly alright. A couple of weeks ago I had a dry ice bomb explode in my hand. That stuff is freaky.

Snap, I had an "experience" that left my ear drum broken...

I was in a pool going under water with a bucket on my head so I could still breath, then I had the great idea to put the bucket on my head and jump in the pool... Well the pressure ruptured my left ear drum and I cannot stick my head underwater now, if I do water gets in it and it hurts like hell for about 2 weeks while it slowly drains out when I sleep.

Anyways, point is we all do dumbass shit.

[Ryan Stewart]

Fuck, blowing shit up?

I cant believe I made it out of highschool without an arson charge so I cant talk.

Hey Brew, how about we chill the fuck out on insulting members of my family? Like you or anyone else never did stupid shit that got you hurt when you were a kid. Yeah, I'm sure you weren't blowing up garbage bags full of flammable gasses, but ease the fuck up a little.

Andy, I just called and talked to your Dad, he told me all about it. The important thing is that you're ok, and didn't get hurt any worse.

Josh.... member of your family or not... He's still a fucking dumbass. Yes, the important thing is that he's ok and not dying or anything... but look what came out of it... 2 blown eardrums? WTF man? No matter who you are.... Fucking Chuck Norris or not..... thats still a dumbass move.

Yes I've done crazy shit.... but I've ALWAYS had the safety behind me. I still do crazy shit... hang 33 ton tanks from the crane and swing it around..... but I have enough sense of mind to know where my escape route is.

Good luck in your recovery man. Next time.... think a little about what can go wrong.... cause it always will.

Both mine have been rebuilt, they use jaw muscle sheath.

Girls love scars, and as a 16 year old, morphine was phenomenal.

I should've have thought to make use of my oxy/acet tanks sooner.

What are some good suggestions for explosive power? Other than blowing your hearing out?

No kidding. Had it been anybody else, Josh would have been making fun of them too.

I'll agree, I am regretting ever doing it, but it was a freak accident. I knew that this could have happened and it did. Had it gone off 2 seconds later when I was 10 feet away, things would have been different. Life happenes and I'm paying for it. Ya, it sucks, but to me it's just another few scars and another story to tell.

And for the record, my girlfriend was standing about 10-15 feet away and it didn't even make her ears ring. It was just that it went off in my face.

I can say this, I won't ever make another one. And if I do, the first worlds out of my mouth will be "Here, you light it." ;)

hahaha....

sorry to hear, next time try a dry ice bomb in a pool! :blowup:

[delatlanta1281]

Glad you are ok! But come on man....... Murphy's Law
I have two friends that made a matchstick bomb when they were 12. The fuse blew and they both got cut to ribbons by the broken glass. I guess you learned your lesson. Leave the pyrotechniks to professionals like Great White!

[Jand3rson]

Right, TJ. I'm glad I've got you around to tell me what to do, because I obviously don't know.

I mean hell, you already showed me the light when it comes to E36's!

[Dave]

but it was a freak accident.

Umm, no, it wasn't. You intentionally filled it and expected to blow it up.

That is not an accident.

[AndrewBird]

It was an accident that it blew up in my face, not that it blew up.

Went to the doctor this morning and I have an appointment two weeks from now. If they aren't healing on their own or getting better by then, I'm going to need surgery. Not much I can do right now.

Dude, what you did (not only lighting a bag full of combustible gas, but telling the world about it) is stupider than asking your internet "community" whether you should go to graduation or a car show/picnic.

You, my good sir, still have a lot of growing up to do.

Dave, this guy took his senior pictures on a Razor scooter. Enough said.
