Explosive Fun

Meng/Stephen/Me were doing "claymore" training in COD4 the other day, and Meng put a unlimited weapon counter command, meaning unlimited anything!!!

So while they were "mapping" out the interior with claymore, I decided to venture to the outside world to take scenery shots... of EXPLOSIVES!!!

Take a look at the Magnificient "Explosipitus Claymorius"(aka the GO BOOM plant or Red Death Line plant) a nearly exctint form of flora.  Went threathened by passing fauna or people, this plant has a unique characteristic; it blows UP in the attackers/inquisitors face! Why kill when it could hinder passerby's , botanists are still trying to figure out (btw, turnover rate for botanist specialising in Explosipitus plants are fairly high, go figure). The petals of the plant , known by many as the rufus letalis in latin, is HIGHLY sensitive to ANY movement. When it detects movement, a explosive reaction(Caused by the Magnesium used by the plants for photosynthesis) explodes forward facing the direction of the movement. This explosion causes tremendous movement, causing other petals to expode. thus causing fatalities in any living thing in a 5 meter radius around its centre...

This is, as hypothesised by botanist, the root cause of the plants diminishing population. Even moving near one will render the plant dead.

Military scientist are considering the plants explosive properties to be used in the field of lethal antipersonnel mines, and have thus come up with the "Project Claymore" derived from the word Claymorius, and the resultant "claymore" is issued currently to field troops and somehow gotten their way into enemy hands...

Pictures of Claymorius in their natural habitat

(This is as close as one can safely get to a Claymorius)

(Notice the  photgraphers protected hands and necessary protection while being near a claymorius)

Birds-eye view of the manificent plant. (Note the prominent rufus letalis which detects movement)

Later, for the fun of it, heres the hybrid ; Claymorius JJSius

 

Note: This is a work of fiction, if you believed whatever I just said, look at a mirror and say "I can't believe Joshua fooled me twice!"

Oh yeah , a pic of "Project Claymores" newest weapon , The Claymore 

(Notice that even with "high" intelligence and common sense a US troop should have, they HAD to print "front toward enemy", probably because someone fixed it the wrong way and blew up his entire platoon?)
