It would have been kinder to use the two prepared lengths of rubber hose on their Land Cruiser. Nothing like Ammonium Nitrate and Aluminum powder when you have a difference of opinion with a Silica Rock in a Pegmatite. I took a bet on the snapshot picture taken. They reach Lusaka, tell a different story than what happened with their undamaged vehicle and ordinance. The Ammonium Nitrate would have been kinder indeed.
Lions love Porcupines.
And many a fearsome male lion has come to his end due to this delicacy. The quills stick and fester. And it impairs the Lion's movements just enough for the Hyenas to be able to take him out. My own porcupine was coming up, only it came in another form. It came in the form of a Gemstone Rough.
