James Harber
A Minnesotan man was fined $2,583 and sentenced to three years' probation[4]
on charges of detonating an explosive device and unlawful possession of
components for explosives after he detonated 100 lb (45 kg) of
Tannerite inside the bed of a dump truck by shooting it with a .50 caliber rifle from 300 yards (270 m) away on January 14, 2008 in Red Wing, Minnesota. The man was on probation when he mixed and shot the Tannerite and was not allowed to possess firearms or explosives. [5][6] The blast could be felt at Prairie Island Nuclear Power Plant (roughly 5 miles away).[7]
