For a fun prank, pour out a small drop of Nitroglycerin and smack it with a hammer to scare your friends. :^)
Ah, a fun little joke I can do with the nitroglycerin I definitely don't have because that would probably be illegal
Just develop a heart condition and they'll straight up give it to you. Easy peasy.
As a bonus, if we already have a heart condition and an abundant supply of prescription nitroglycerin tabs, we can perform the aforementioned prank to give all our friends heart attacks too! 😄
Ha, jokes on YOU, I already have a heart condition!
Wait...
Alternatively, work in a hospital or on an ambulance. We've got loads of the shit
I was gonna say, actually thinking about pocketing the excess next time I pull some from the Omnicell to see if this works lol
A tab of NTG is only 0.5mg, a drop of pure NTG (so around the size of the tab) would be in the ballpark of 125 mg, so the tablet contains very little NTG. Id wager a tiny pop if any.
I really want to put a couple bottles of tablets in a blender and see what happens haha
Maybe it'll be like the 4th of July in your kitchen. It's worth a try. Make sure to video it and let us know how it turns out.
Easy enough to make.
This triggered a lost memory of watching bootleg MacGyver with some friends while getting blackout drunk celebrating Estonian reindependence after the soviet occupation collapsed. It was in German (None of us spoke German) and he was also doing something with some nitroglycerin on a truck.
