Spring-loaded popsicle sticks, that is, and not German hand grenades.
I got an e-mail recently from Tim Fort, the current Guinness record holder for the longest stick bomb.
He’s interested in the art of movement. A few years back, he put stick bombs, dominoes, and other moving pieces together to create a 6 minute-long chain of falling, flying and unwinding objects. Check it out if you’ve got the time.
His newest, and possibly his best, is a 4:30 piece called Frenetic Kinetics.

How is it possible for the sticks to travel at that sort of lighting-fast speed, you know, the like you see right in the end?
they might have speeded the camera up
