Wonder if those kids made it to adulthood? I thought dynamite was for fishing.

Sounds like me when I was a kid

And as an Adult I might try it from a distance

I saw a vid of the aftermath of a fellow carrying a stick or two of dynamite on a scooter. Apparently he was going fishing. This was in another country and it seemed to be a common thing. I mean fishing with dynamite-not blowing your self up.

Drop it in then you have a fish market every fish is floating for you to take your pick no pole no waiting if you use enough it might even be cooked for you lol

Dynamite can burn and will not explode. It requires a blasting cap or cord. Another thing is you can't just throw a stick in water and catch fish. You need to make sure it has time to sink before it explodes. A safer and just as effective way is green walnut hulls in a sack. Both are illegal in most states.
