“It’s completely harmless…” – Honor House Products Corp.

via

According to the ad, Honor House Products Corp. is selling an exact replica of a hand grenade that looks and works just like the exploding ones the army used in battles. The ad provides very clear instructions: All you need to do is pull the pin, wait four seconds, throw the grenade (do not forget this very important step), and “watch the fun” as the grenade automatically explodes (though it doesn’t say what you should do if it doesn’t detonate).

For only a dollar and 25 cents, inclusive of shipping, you can get a grenade that can’t break but can explode repeatedly. There’s also a 10-day free trial and a money-back guarantee. It seems the company is desperate to sell its grenades. Instead of using all these sales tactics, Honor House should’ve first clarified that the grenade is a toy, it does NOT work just like the real one, and its explosions will not cause injuries.
