-
If you have ever watched any American action movie, you will realize that people don’t joke with a bomb at all. No matter how strong the protagonist is, immediately he sees that the antagonist has in possession a bomb, he begins to flee for his life. That only gives whoever is watching a fair idea of how dangerous a bomb is, even if you have never seen or had an experience with one before.
