A Glittering Mess
Arthur’s final plan was to create a glitter bomb, which he came up with after experimenting with filling the box with garbage. To create the glitter bomb, he blew up a balloon and filled it with glitter and confetti. He then placed a pin inside the box and created a lever so that when the box was opened, the glitter would explode onto the thief’s clothes. However, the glitter bomb did not work as well as Arthur had hoped, as it would not scare them away for good.

Causing Controversy
Arthur’s numerous prank experiments had sparked a debate online. While he was fed up with the packages he bought with his hard-earned money being stolen, some people questioned whether it was right to deter the thieves in this way. Although Arthur’s pranks were not scary enough until he used blanks, the use of explosive devices to catch thieves was still a controversial issue.
A Misnomer?
