That's nothing, I've downloaded the plans for a thermonuclear hand grenade.

When I went through US Army basic training, the hand grenade training was conducted by a cadre with imagination. Recruits were seated in outdoor bleachers on a firing range as an instructor presented a lecture followed by a demonstration in which the instructor threw a grenade (inert; but, the recruits didn't know it) out to a predetermined spot on the range. When the dummy grenade hit the ground, another cadre member set off a nuclear explosion training simulator (a relatively new pyro-technique that sent up flames and smoke in a massive mushroom cloud) prepositioned on that spot. The results were spectacular and the recruits gave the demonstration a standing ovation. The legend of the thermonuclear hand grenade was born.
