    Very careless of someone to leave that behind when the construction site was abandoned. Old dynamite is dangerous. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamite#Storage_considerations

    don’t worry, this is probably Acme brand. It will only work against coyotes and ducks.

    The dropping of a bombshell will happen sooner or later.

    Considering old dynamite “sweats” nitroglycerine, Brother Leo’s stumble could be the answer to the Curia’s prayers and fasting, and the world would be far worse off for it.

    But the Nitro could act as a detonator, no?

    Of course, given the fact that it seems to have been abandoned, other safety considerations may also have been neglected. Still, since the amount of dynamite is also considered—and only that number of sticks prepared, you are likely right. Except for one prime consideration: the Rule of Funny. And Comic Convention.
