Reminds me of a scene in a Mickey Rooney movie, (1940), Young Tom Edison. In which he shows someone on a train a bottle of explosive that he made. Not realizing that nitroglycerin had already been invented. Nor how unstable it was to motions, such as being on a moving railroad train. Rooney, as young Edison lowered the bottle from the train that was on a wooden trestle bridge into a river. And of course the movie went on from there.

If it was truly the most explosive, it would have already exploded.

The most explosive compound is probably azidoaside azide, which will blow up if you look at it funny.

It does make you think about all the people who had to invent explosives over and over again, until someone thought to write down the recipe FIRST.
