window frames; better than a string and a doorknob for removing Junior's loose
tooth" (As remembered from the Prairie Home Companion show)

I prefer hand grenades. They can be used for fishing, removing walls
from fingerprints, getting your neighbour to stop mowing the lawn too
early..etc.

Hand grenades are also very effective for painting rooms. One opens a
can of paint, places it on the floor in the geometric centre of the
room, pulls the pin from the grenade, drops it into the, vacates the
room, and voi ci, a painted room.

Painting With Explosives

This myth originated from the episode "Do-It-Yourself, Mr. Bean"
of the British comedy series Mr. Bean starring Rowan Atkinson.

Myth statement: A small room can be quickly painted by detonating
a stick of dynamite in a bucket of paint.

Status: Busted

Notes: A stick of dynamite in a bucket of paint cannot distribute
the paint evenly enough to fully paint the room; only 40% of the
room (around the bottom and part of the ceiling) received paint,
and the room took some shrapnel damage (even from a plastic bucket).
Furthermore, Adam's and Jamie's customized contraptions, designed
to help distribute the paint more evenly, failed to produce any
successful results or an intact room.

I love the last line. Classic Mythbusters.
