1/4 stick of dynamite? She’d be dead.

This sounds like an industrial firework.

I dealt with and trained a lot of men on the care and use of high explosives during my time in the Army Corps of Engineers, both here and in RVN.

You are absolutely correct.

A blasting cap, by itself, is vicious, they will mangle or remove a hand.
Add a quarter stick of dynamite, large cloud of pink spray.

There’s a type of firecracker named “1/4 stick”.
