Exploding Helicopter
I got this cool little remote control helicopter delivered to the office today, and on the second charge it literally blew up…apparently the battery just got a bit too hot and set the body of the copter on fire.
The pic doesn’t really show it too well, but basically the whole front part of the copter burnt out. It’s made out of polystyrene so it went up pretty fast, and man does burning polystyrene stink.

Black Hawk Down!
Is that collaterol damage on our meeting table?

Yeah, she went up pretty fast…I kinda wish it had gone up while actually flying, that would’ve been cool.
Luckily the table cleaned up nicely :)

I wish I was there to see that, I bet the office thought it was the coolest thing to happen in weeks

Heheh, kickass!
Are you sure it wasn’t snakes that brought the plane down? I have it on pretty good authority that snakes on a plane do a dynamite job of f-ing everything up.
