It was harmless fun but there's no way kids could get away with that stuff today. We learned chemistry by trying to make different stuff. Granted nitro was a bit stupid to make at home but we were experimenting.

They had made a whole [/quote] [/quote] Late 70 s in Hurst TX a couple brothers did exactly that. They created Nitro Glycerine and decided to dispose of it at the gravel pits behind the Bell Helicopter Factory nearby. One of the boys was killed, I dont remember the extent of the injuries to the surviving brother. I did not know them however they lived down the street from us and I remember the police and fire department having the block closed off while they search their home. [/quote]

UPDATE: One of the suspicious devices was an IED. To diffuse the device, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives blasted water on the container found just outside Rosebud off Farm to Market Road 1963. IED was designed to blow shrapnel. Sheriff said it would have been extremely dangerous had it gone off, which it was capable of. There were no injuries. The liquid found in the IED is being sent to a lab for analysis.
ROSEBUD - The McLennan County Sheriff’s office bomb squad has been called to check out suspicious devices found under a bridge Tuesday night in Rosebud.
The bridge is a couple of miles out of town off of FM 1963.
According to Sheriff Parnell McNamara, several suspicious devices were found, including a bottle filled with liquid and wrapped in tape, a possible detonator device and a cooler.
He said his team is going to try to x-ray the items.
This is a developing story. Check back for updates.
