I once had a friend who put it in his car. Upon impact, he, three other friends, and the car immediately perished in a very hot fire. The rims were nothing but smallish molten blobs.

However, when a cup of gasoline correctly mixed with air has the explosive capability of 5lbs. of dynamite, does it really matter if AV gas is more flammable?
