Plot holes in the bomb plot In the version I heard about he tried to set fire to plastic explosive with a match which seems to match this article That could never possibly work in a million years You need detonators for high explosive If it was possible one wonders why he didnt go to the toilet where he would have privacy if the first match didnt work Yes there are smoke detectors but the door can be jammed easily enough Theres a fundamental problem of credibility that this article and the origonal news coverage never goes into Does anyone have any credible sources on the likelihood of this being even remotely possible
