Watford Smoke Flare

[pastafarian]

A squib is a miniature explosive device used in a wide range of industries, from special effects to military applications. It resembles a tiny stick of dynamite, both in appearance and construction, although with considerably less explosive power. Squibs consist of two electrical leads which are separated by a plug of insulating material, a small bridge wire or electrical resistance heater, and a bead of heat-sensitive chemical composition in which the bridge wire is embedded.[SUP][1][/SUP] Squibs can be used for generating mechanical force, or to provide pyrotechnic effects for both film and live theatrics. Squibs can be used for shattering or propelling a variety of materials.[SUP][2][/SUP]
A squib generally consists of a small tube filled with an explosive substance, with a detonator running through the length of its core, similar to a stick of dynamite. Also similar to dynamite, the detonator can be a slow-burning fuse, or as is more common today, a wire connected to a remote electronic trigger.[SUP][3][/SUP] Squibs range in size, anywhere from 2 to 15 millimeters in diameter.[SUP][2][/SUP]

“Smoke inhalation can be very severe and if you are hit by one it can be lethal and possibly fatal.”

Don't lethal and fatal mean the same thing?

It's so dangerous it can kill you twice

With all the fuss about flares this past week, including an item in the match prog, why was no one arrested after a Watford fan threw a flare during their goal celebrations?
There is a camera pointing directly at the away end and rewinding the incident should allow the police to identify the culprit.

My understanding is for example: a gun is lethal, a gun shot to the head is fatal.

Damp squid

Back on topic, of all the smoke bombs let off recently - it was probably the worst. Cant understand it, but then it does pinpoint where the easily amused idiots are (OOOOOH, LOOKY AT THE YELLOWEY SMOKEY!!!).

Why do you need them to celebrate a goal either ? They just make 15yr olds from Milton Keynes look a bit of a dick.

Surely every squid is damp? Unless set fire to I suppose, but then how would you set it alight. Maybe that was the problem.

Lightly sautèed in a pan of steaming broth?
