Those things are pretty strong, they don't just break when falling over. Chances are the cyclist would still lose. Better replace it with a landmine, or something else that really explodes when getting hit.

A claymore would do the trick!

[-] PattyMcB@lemmy.world 15 points 2 days ago

Ackshully, the explosive in claymore mines is C4, so they're pretty impact resistant. They let us Marines play with them, so they've gotta handle mistreatment.

[-] notabot@piefed.social 6 points 2 days ago

Just got to rig up a lever to the trigger and you might even stop the car before impact. I imagine that'd give the bike a bit of a shove too, so maybe you need one on the other side too, to balance the forces.

Your description makes it sound like they're edible as well.

[-] wreckedcarzz@lemmy.world 8 points 2 days ago

Only the ones with the pretty colors

[-] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 1 points 2 days ago

you been gettin into the crayons again

[-] lagg_mine@lemmy.world 3 points 2 days ago

I'm pretty sure C4 is not very toxic, I think it even makes you a little high!

[-] how_we_burned@lemmy.zip 15 points 2 days ago

I always loved in Snowcrash the key antagonist drove around on a motorbike with a side car with a ex-soviet nuke wired to a heart beat monitor. Security companies spent their time not trying to stop him but trying to stop his numerous enemies from trying to kill him

Sure its going to be a bit of a fizzle when the tritium decays but still gonna make one hell of a hole in the road if someone dares to hit him.

Ok but I don't think propane tanks are as fragile & explosive as they suppose.

Pressure relief valve needs to be sealed so it can really go boom.

[-] Eheran@lemmy.world 5 points 2 days ago

Realistically nothing happens. The pressure relief valve does not matter, as the track itself has to fail from the impact. Nobody is going to uniformly squeeze it to build pressure to make it rupture, where the valve would open. A fire cooking it for minutes means you are either already burned crispy or simply not near anymore. But in that case at least we get a nice explosion.

But really nothing happens, there is nothing to crush it. A bike will just give way and the tank flies off. You need either a ton of inertia behind it or 2 vehicles pancaking you.

I see your car. Do you sea-mine?

M.A.D.D. isn't just for insane world leaders anymore!

[-] DmMacniel@feddit.org 8 points 3 days ago

What's the second D stands for? Isnt it usually just M.A.D doctrine?

[-] over_clox@lemmy.world 14 points 2 days ago
  • M.A.D.D. > Mothers Against Drunk Drivers
  • D.A.M.M. > Drunks Against Mad Mothers

Disclaimer: I did not coin either term.

[-] Boozilla@sh.itjust.works 7 points 2 days ago

"Mutually assured destruction doctrine".

Or maybe I conflated it with mothers against drunk driving.

[-] 666dollarfootlong@lemmy.world 16 points 2 days ago

Mutually Assured Drunk Driving 🤙

Makes Awesomely Dramatic Destruction
