Is this like that kid who “made” a clock years ago that looked like a bomb and then tried to act like he didn’t do it intentionally?

clock boy


Blast from the past.

Some idiot kid disassembles a clock radio, brings it to school and arrested.

Hailed as a hero by big tech. Obama invites to the White House.

Sues the school district and loses.

Self deports to Qatar,

Never seen or heard from again.

Those are pretty innocuous chemicals if he's being honest.

The boy needs a real lab - not the garage in what appears to be a neighborhood of multi-million dollar homes.

Yeah, if he's smart enough to skip hs and enroll at 13 in college, he's smart enough to know better than to do that. Acetone ain't the only thing he was using. He had a type of compound that is an organometallic compound, and the chemistry folks on here can attest to those things. Saw a demonstration of one on a job interview one time. We had to get fully dressed in fire gear. Guy used a syringe to withdraw some from a tank, then we went outside and he disperesed it into the air. It lights up immediately. Not saying the kid had something that flammable, but that ain't something you swirl around at home.

But it should be apparent after a week he wasn't making nerve gas.

The boy had a hell of a work ethic and commitment, even if misguided.

He was the subject of an early episode of The Dollop podcast, one of their best episodes.

I blame NileRed for this.
