    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! 😄

              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.

                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.

      For a really fun prank, coerce your friends into driving truckfuls of nitroglycerin hundreds of miles down a dodgy road through the jungle.
