When a character manages to unintentionally blow only themselves up with the explosives that they are carrying. The character can either be mishandling unstable explosives, or they can be a failed suicide bomber. No matter the case, the explosion is usually caused by their own stupidity, making this a case of [[Too Dumb to Live]]. It is a good way to show the audience [[Killed Off for Real|that the character is REALLY DEAD]], because the person unfortunate enough to have this happen to them always dies instantly. |
