Throwing Things: Lessons in Athletics and War From a Distance
"Okay, none week I was busy, last week I was… Ugh," Fred declared. "So screw it, let's throw grenades and blow some shit up."
The Danger Shop transformed into a desertscape littered with dummies, tanks, and sheds. By the students were a bunch of bandoliers with grenades strapped to them.
"The important thing with grenades is that you want to throw them far away because they explode and make things blow up. You do not want to be blown up. You want other things to be blown up," Fred emphasized. He grabbed a bandolier and pulled off a grenade, demonstrating as he explained. "You pop the pin out, which turns it into an active explosive, and then you throw it away from you. Again, far away. Run away after you throw it if you're not confident in your throwing skills yet. If it explodes too close to you, you'll probably die from shrapnel. And if that doesn't get you, the shockwave probably will."
Fred provided some more information about pins and lobbed a few more into the distance. Each one ended with a satisfying boom and maybe a dummy arm flying around in tatters.
"Okay, go ahead, make things explode, and definitely don't take advantage of the fact that the Shop is designed to not blow you up if you didn't throw a grenade far enough." With that, a grenade exploded directly behind Fred. As the smoke started to clear, he could be seen posing, looking up at something unidentified in the sky and holding his bandolier. Like a badass.
"Okay, seriously, start doing it."
