Shotgun Shell exploding OUTSIDE a gun - What Happens?

This video illustrates what happens when a shotgun shell accidentally goes off outside a gun. It is surprisingly innocuous.
This was done under very controlled conditions - do not reproduce this yourself.

Be sure to watch what happens with a .50 BMG is set off under the same conditions.    • .50 BMG Shell exploding OUTSIDE a gun...  

We will be demonstrating the Fith Ops trip alarm more in another video but check out this site. They have a lot of cool specialty shotgun ammo too! It was nice of them to send us this to test out!
