    Atomize* some propelant, boom, explosive.

    The trick is to get the atomized propelant to “boom, explosive” at the target and not in your backpack.

    Also, you probably want a “boom” sufficient to accomplish whatever demolition you’re planning, which - again - raises the stakes regarding what’s in your backpack.

    There’s a classic little film called “The Wages of Fear” that explores the hazards of amateurs transporting high explosives over long distances.

        Tannerite comes to mind. It explodes from a high impact, and little else. I’m not sure what sort of yield you’d get. That stuff mostly just makes a pop and smoke.

        I have heard of people using it on stubborn tree stumps, but that’s several pounds of the stuff.
