"Don't be an idiot, pass the coffee grinder son" The fertilizer is used to make explosives mate, so it's like "don't be stupid, now pass the coffee" either that or the grinder is needed to make the bombs. :P

Impossible to grind large quantities of fertilizer with a coffee grinder, they used it to grind tinfoil into aluminum powder 👌

@@daneberggren1044 I get the math, I just don't think it's a feasible option. Especially when you can grind double that amount in a spinning barrel, in less time.
