      No, I’ve never accidentally blown anything up. When I was at university, someone spilled a really flammable liquid and set fire to the chemistry lab though! Fortunately, no one was hurt and they didn’t do too much damage.

      By “‘accidentally'” – do you mean that it was a little bit “deliberately’? No! I haven’t blown anything up in an experiment either accidentally or on purpose.

      Once I was using a piece of equipment and it blew up. It was kind of scary!
