Flash Bang...

In an attempt to deter vehicle (or contents) theft, a guy rigs his truck with an explosive set to go off when someone gains entry and tampers with the interior.
Described as a loud, non-lethal triggered deterrent set up in the center console of the truck.

He installed surveillance video to capture the event.



Intended to scare off a would-be thief, it's one of those 'Don't try this at home' events, because the owner of the vehicle would be liable should the thief actually be harmed.

Yeah... that reminds me of the shop owner who was tired of thieves getting into his store via the roof mounted air vent. He wired the interior grill so that someone trying to remove it (and gain access into the building) would get an electrical shock and back off. Unfortunately (for him) it sent 120 volts through someone completing the circuit and the guy fried like a hotdog in a toaster oven!
He was sued by the dead man's family.

Some years back, a dope grower set up a shot gun in his crop with fish fishing line to the trigger...

Corrupt police simply moved it around a bit, and that was the end of that.
This is on the same lines as banks keeping a special pack of money that contains red dye. When a robber asks for cash, they include one of these with the real money. As soon as he tampers with it, the dye marks all the money as stolen, rendering it useless.
