      Not that I am aware of…. but I am not really a chemist. If there was one then I think we would have heard stories of explodng humans by now!

      I don’t think so… sometimes people react with people and then there can be massive explosions!

      I’m not too sure about this and i’m not sure i like the idea that there could be something that reacts with humans- perhaps we shouldn’t test this

      Not something I’ve ever thought about. In my work we always try to avoid any explosions.
