Don't try this at home kids! In a captivating YouTube video titled "What's inside a Grenade?" by the creators of the What's Inside? channel, the hosts take a daring look at what lies within two types of grenades—an apple grenade and a pineapple grenade. First and foremost, it's crucial to highlight that these are not live grenades; all explosive materials have been removed. This educational exploration combines humor, science, and a slight thrill, making it a peculiar yet fascinating watch. The video begins with a disclaimer, humorously cautioning viewers about the dangers of handling explosives, even in a safe environment. The hosts describe the mechanics of a grenade casually, referencing the pin and lever mechanism, explaining how these grenades work in an entertaining yet informative manner. There is genuine excitement as they prepare to demonstrate the grenades in action, albeit under controlled conditions. As they trigger a controlled explosion with a toaster oven, viewers are treated to a spectacular slow-motion shot of the explosion. The results are both chaotic and visually impactful, emphasizing the power of the tannerite explosives used during the demonstration. Not only does the explosion provide entertainment, but it also serves as a practical illustration of the mechanics of explosives. After the explosion, the hosts delve into the Grenade's internals, showcasing its hollow structure, which would typically be filled with gunpowder in a live version. The process of cutting open the grenades allows for a clear view of their construction, dispelling any myths about how they work. The video stands out not only for its explosive content but also for its educational perspective on safety and mechanics, making it an ideal watch for those curious about military equipment without promoting reckless behavior. In summary, if you're intrigued by science and the mechanics of everyday objects, this video is a gem worth watching. Just remember their parting motto: "We cut things open so you don't have to!"
