COLE CARINI

Carini decided to make a bomb to target cheerleaders. He decided to make TATP, TATP is a highly unstable explosive and of course because of that his whole plan blew up in his face. Literally.

The accidental detonation occured in his bedroom, he suffered from an amputated hand, amputated fingers on the opposite hand, and shrapnel wounds to the neck and throat. A search warrant was obtained and upon reaching his searching his room, first, on the floor was “flesh colored substance”, and “looked like a piece of human skin” (Accoridng to the FBI doc.)

Secondly, a minivan near Carini’s residence had blood on the rear door and door handle, additionally near the front door and all the way up to his bedroom. In his room he had blinds and a T-shit out in the open they both had cut marks that demonstrate the shrapnel went through them. On the ceiling above the plastic container was blood splattered on the ceiling alone with skin colored chunk flesh, an adjacent wall had more blood splattered.

To summarize, he basically had pieces of his flesh torn apart and splattered across his room due to premature detonation of the TATP. The damage on his hand had been so brutal that his excuse for it was that his lawn the mower flipped over in “such a way” that it dragged his hands into the blades and because the blades were spinning so fast it “acted like a bomb”. He was sentenced in the U.S. District Court in Abingdon to 84 months in federal prison.

JAMES GLENCOE

The story is pretty staright forward, 17-year-old Glencoe's scientific bent led him to start experimenting — first making pressure explosives with dry-ice, eventually moving to black-powder explosives and beyond. The photo below shows his left hand prior to his survey, following a pipe bomb explosion in his parent's Moses Lake Home.

Interestingly enough, like Carini, the pipe bomb was filled with 20 grams of TATP. (Honestly just don't make this. It was given the nickname "mother of satan" for a reason).

ANDREY K.

I have no words bro T_T like I GET trying to be cool, but this is just SAD. Don't even want to make fun of him like with Cole Carini cause he didn't even do nothing wrong. There isn't even much information on the incident, the article doesn't mention what type of explosive he even made, in fact there was debate if charges would even be put on the "hapless" teen. I kinda hope not, he was just trying to show off and I think he learned his lesson.

He was 17-years-old and lost his entire right hand and part of his left hand in the explosion near the entrance to the library on Vasilevsky Island in St. Petersburg, he was taken to St. Mary Magdalena Hospital where he was put into a coma and underwent surgery; according to Russian website SPB. A SWAT team searched Andre's room after the explosion and found evidence that Andre had chatted with a girl online, bragging about his bomb. In the chat, he admitted to having explosives in his home and claimed to be helping a friend make a bomb.

It seems that at the entrance of the library he tried to assemble the explosive device and it went off in his hands. Picture below a photo of the Russian lad posing with the bomb he had allegedly made before it exploded, leading him to lose a hand.

MARTIN MIDDLETON

Cited from a news aricle from July 18, 2013, Middleton was known to make HMEs, he told police he often made the £10 bombs and got a “thrill” out of the process. He was constructing a pipe-bomb when it accidentally detonated. Middleton's girlfriend said she heard a "loud bang and saw a flash before seeing Middleton running out of the back door, his hand was pouring with blood".

Middleton suffered a serious injury to his left hand and underwent extensive plastic surgery. His hand would never function normally. Fragments from the bomb were found embedded in the walls and woodwork of the living room.

Judge Timothy Stead, sentencing, said: “Middleton has caused himself permanent pain, disfigurement and disability but mercifully no physical harm to anyone else. I think you do now know how dangerous your actions were. If you haven't leaned your lesson you never will. I'm told you have learned your lesson and the evidence seems to suggest that's so. You have suffered because of your own actions and I make some reductions to allow for that.”

Previously he'd received burning injuries from "using matches to make a tennis ball bomb and it blew up in his face". The photo above is of the aftermath of the tennis ball incident, there are no photos of the injuries from his hand from the pipe-bomb.

SPARKLER BOMB INCIDENT

This kid was using some leftover fireworks in an attempt to make a sparkler bomb. He was 15-years-old, and: lost part of his leg, multiple fingers and permanently blinded

ICE BOMB INCIDENT

A girl who had a dry-ice bomb blow up in her face because she saw some kids throw the bottle, and thought they were littering so she went to pick it up and it exploded. She received a lot of burns from the explosion. If you're gonna make bombs, at least do it away from other people, you wouldn't wanna hurt yourself and much less someone else.
