I’d like a revisit to the toilet myth, trying bug spray and other accelerants. Also, outhouses as opposed to water toilets. Read this: http://www.snopes.com/embarrass/accident/toilet.asp

i really think that it was kwl, so leave it as it is.
also, many of theis things are impraticable but how about an ice knife? huh?
ice can be pretty sharp, even naturally formed stuff like icesickles and if you used the knife, all traces of it could be “melted”.

What’s the difference about the ice bullet? Even if did stay intact, it’d still make a hole in a body. It’s not like the cause of death couldn’t be determined?

If Grant were to make a smaller version of his nitro cannon, which he used to punch a hole in the shop’s wall by the way, and create a reservoir of a super cool, compressed, flammable gas, attach it to the nitro cannon, and use it as fuel. In this case, it would no longer be a nitro cannon. As for the bullet, I agree it should be made in a “pressure freezer”, which would have the effect of compressing the water into a much smaller space and then freezing it, which makes it much more dense and hard. I do like the idea of obtaining a blood sample of the victim and freezing that.

When you base the test on a distance walked or ran, your results are correct. BUT when you base the test on time in the rain walking or running, you will get more wet running because the rain will impact your front side of your clothes in addition to the exact same amount impacting the top surfaces of your clothes.

Was looking for a way to kill with gas. The man upstairs cooks drugs and I’m sick and tired of smelling that crap. I am also tired of being exposed to a fire danger that these “Labs” are famous for. I would like to see this guy get what he is asking for.

Can a person be propelled off a toilet seat by dropping a lit cigarette into a toilet bowl when filled with various combustible materials?

The Myth about the man who got katapulted of his toilet exploding was prob a large male, no toiletseat so sat on the ceramic ( sealing the toilet ) and the fuel was calciumcarbide that fell out of his backpocket as he had to urgo to make it in time, than lighted a sig than after opend legg;s to make room drop sig and kaboom :D

I am in agreement with using CO2 (or the like) as the propellant, however, you might twist the project to “what would it take to assassinate with an ice bullet”! It would involve building a weapon that would kill with ice, like from Dan Brown’s novel! You also might try frozen blood somehow taken from the victim, or some other type of frozen liquid that freezes at a lower temperature so the melting point would be naturally hotter than that of ice?
