**Slaps Gunpowder Barrel** This bad boy clears any ship... and pesky crew members too!

[NotDeadSoFar]

Imagine looking outside and the river just *explodes*

[GamerFromJump]

Given what people did in rivers in the 17th century, you wouldn’t want that water falling on you.

[obsidironpumicia]

Imagine the embarrassment of accidentally dropping the musket ball into the water and having to do the Paddle of Shame.

[rramangalla]

Instructions unclear the tnt doesnt break blocks underwater

[Kevinlikescountrys]

I just had a feeling he would use TNT for gunpowder.

[alankeyes]

Newcastle had the Monopoly on coal EXPORTS from the River Tyne. Hence the phrase "like carrying coals to Newcastle" to describe doing something unnecessary because it's already oversupplied.

[CjHuey-xmys]

Just imagining someone dropping a hot ball down a tube and just franticly paddling away is so funny

[germanomagnone]

they're out of their minds, cleaning up a river with dynamite! and to put it mildly a Looney Tunes solution, and who did they call to finish the job, the "dynamite Ducks" or "kaboom brothers"?

[DaneOrschlovsky]

It's amazing how the boatman was able to row away quickly enough with those GIANT brass balls of his.

[unclejeeb]

Dope as hell? Yes.
Effective? Haven't been informed about that yet.

[seabfinnigan]

Musket balls are made of lead, it will melt way before it glow red hot.
