My what?! - This is definitely a holiday gift oddity.
There is a gag (literally) gift toy out there called, "Fart Bomb." It apparently is rather dangerous by toy standards today because it blows up.
Customs officers have seized 263 bags and are urging parents to hand in any of the unused toys to a consumer protection bureau, a government statement said Tuesday.
The toy includes a silver-colored bag labeled "Fart Bomb." The bag contains sulfur compound powder and an inner plastic bag of diluted acid, the government said.
When a person squeezes the bag to get the toy going it causes the sulfur compound to mix with the acid which inflates the bag and then causes it to explode. The resulting combination is hydrogen sulfide.
Not exactly great for the eyes or the rest of the body for that matter.
