FIRST air cannon robots PVC??

[KenWittlief]

Im having a hard time with some of the ideas being presented of ways to make a PVC tank less dangerous by wrapping it with nets or tape or wire

that seems like a seat of the pants kinda thing to do. You would have to test the end product many times to see whether it contained all the little pieces, or whether it made things worse. You would have to repeatedly blow up PVC tanks in a controlled environment, and find a way to measure the energy of the resulting fragments. (Sound like a job for the MythBusters!)

And dont forget the concussion if it blows in a small area. It doesnt take much of a bang to permanently destroy your hearing.

This reminds me of people who put an X of tape across their windows or sheets of plywood, when a cat 5 hurricane is coming. When they return their house is completely gone!
