Moved to Alaska from MN, blew up a Subaru. It's a good video, you won't be disappointed. Redneck paradise
I just read the comments. That rifle is a .338 Lapua? Nice piece, I've always respected rifles chambered in 5 dollar bills.
+1 Nice shot. Don't sweat the fanboi's, subaru or not I would have been giggling like a little schoolgirl if I was there.
What was the N.E.W. on that? 40lbs? Your guys chain of command is cool with that kind of stuff? Doesn't seem like something a civilian buys in that kind of bulk without serious accountability with homeland security. I can specifically see a military range or training area using these kind of quantities. Watched another couple of your videos too. I'm impressed those guys would touch any dead animal on the roadway. They probably watched EOD or Engineers run a mine detector over it before they would touch it. What really impressed me though is that their stake bed was one color and didn't have shinny crap glued all over it.
We're just simple Alaskans blowing stuff up here man. What is "N.E.W."? and what is a "stake bed"? Yeah the tannerite falls under the black powder laws so you can get up to 50 lbs of it right off their website no problem. Now if you're stupid and trying to do a 200 lb tannerite bomb, you'll go to jail. There was some guy that did that in MN and he's in jail for a LONG time because the FBI and ATF got involved after he blew it up too close to a nuclear power plant. But yeah up to 50 lbs is perfectly legal, just like gun powder or black powder. Yes there are military ranges up here all over the place where they shoot tanks, artillery, fighter jets and A-10's, etc so the occasional explosion isn't unusual and doesn't raise an eyebrow. This is Alaska, it really is like the wild west up here. No the cow wasn't dead man! It just had a broken leg. They put it in that truck and took it home, strung it up from the rafters in the barn and kept it alive for milk. Eventually they slaughtered it when the milk turned sour but they didn't let it go to waste!
We're just simple Alaskans blowing stuff up here man. Simple Alaskans with high fades and videos of them in BDU's on youtube with 180-200 dollars worth of "tannerite" to blow up. What is "N.E.W."? and what is a "stake bed"? Net Explosive Weight and a stake bed is a type of truck.

Were/are you in the Army or are you a guy from Minnesota that just moved to Alaska? You know a lot about the story of a cow in Iraq. In the time I've spent in the middle east, I have yet to meet anyone who has seen a barn (at most a covering made out of poached sheet metal) and I will be impressed the first building I see built with rafters. I also spent a lot of time growing up on a dairy farm. The last time I saw a sow give milk while strung up from anything, or eat/drink enough to produce milk with an injury was never. Not trying to be a dick, but my BS meter is bouncing. And Dan - I'll take a pass on running my luck with blowing stuff up as a civilian. Its been fun in the Corps but it gets old after your first few line charges go off.
