Its actually very smart, you are using the water as an explosively formed projectile that is traveling so fast that it destroys the bombs internals before fuses can react or wires can send signals or a charge. The different ways you can force the water as a knife, jet or wall means it can even cut through metal cased devices or rip them apart. The composition and simple construction of these devices means that you can pretty much assemble them anywhere in the world and with few moving parts minimises what can go wrong.
The lack of gloves part is the most sobering for me. It makes sense, but it signifies an implicit understanding with the technician that they're trying to keep you alive, but you're going to lose your hands. Oof.
The whole suit is also only a limited protection. If the device goes off, depending on the mass of the explosives, chances are, due to the pressure increase, all the "hollow" parts of your body will explode, that is lungs, eyeballs etc. What the suit is extremely good for is keeping your body in one piece.
@@MrPi72 Yup easier to ID if something goes wrong and also the suit kind of reduces the chances of them becoming a secondary source of shrapnel because no one likes meat and bone shards flying everywhere.
I just look at the whole suit as being like a can of dog food. If a bomb explodes in front of it, the over pressure and shockwave will kill whoever is in the suit but all that kevlar, nomex and plates keep all the meaty chunks together.
Plot twist: we were already on the watchlist and that's why this was recommended to us. It is known the FBI will intentionally radicalize people and THEN bust them for acting on it. And if you slip through their fingers oh well, then we get an "event" that they can use up on Capitol Hill to take away some more freedoms.
If the explosive stuff is scattered, it doesn’t explode nearly as well. You also will probably disconnect the detonator by doing that, so it won’t go off at all.

They don't wear gloves because they would not be able to defuse a bomb if they had big gloves on it also probably would not make a difference anyway your still dead.
But that’s because they don‘t have to disarme IEDs but because they have to disarme american and british bombs because they couldn‘t build proper fuses, especial timefuses.
The Myth busters worked on an episode testing out a bunch of bomb 'recepies' what were the materials were supposed to be easy to get and assemble. Turns out many of the them were real effective. They didn't air the episode obviously and gave the information to the FBI.
We had an IED attack the final month of our deployment in 08'. Shredded the front half of an Up-Armored HumVee, got through the dash and left charred streaks everywhere. Thankfully I operated a different vehicle, but this video still gives me chills. These things are no joke.
I remember back in school we had a project where we had to make a slideshow about what we want to be when we grow up. One kid said he wanted to be in the bomb squad and talked about how the job is done. The teacher had a really worried look on her face for some reason.
I remember going into the city one night. I was wondering what was going on, and an officer said there was a bomb squad checking something out. Found out a few days later, the idiot that said "there's a bomb in this box", he forgot one thing, it was sealed up. So the police arrested him, went to his house and found bomb-making material.
The FBI: The internet is a dangerous security threat. Terrorists use it to spread bomb making information! also The FBI: lets explain stuff about bombs!
The improvised detonator tools are freaking cool. I like the shotgun shell water tube And the xray machine powered by a dewalt battery is badass. I never realized just how "gritty" the tools were for a bomb tech. It's just highly functional and I love it
I'm a medic for the 36th Battalion, Singapore Combat Engineers. We do exactly what is described in the video. That bombsuit may look stupid but it's no joke, the thing weighs 28kg, or 61.7 pounds. It is very easy to fall victim to heat exhaustion or injury, so thats something us medic look out for. The robot you see is used for remote surveillance and scouting, or for remote detonation. The way they dispose the bomb is quite similar to our procedures. however, our categorisation of IEDs is somewhat different. Category A denotes am IED that can be safely moved and disrupted elsewhere, Category B denotes an IED that is not safe to move and has to be detonated on the spot, Category C denotes a victim-operated/triggered IED. Our x-rays are a bit more primitive: it requires a bomb technician to use it by hand, as we have no remote x-ray capabilities. But really, you gotta appreciate the EOD/IED teams and squads in your area for 24/7 coverage and readiness, being on standby during weekends or public holidays as well as festive occasions, just to keep us all safe.
