When using any kind of explosive, it is important to know when is the right time to start it. It is good not to start it too late. Otherwise, somebody could notice and disarm it. On the other hand, it's also a bad idea to light the fuse before you are even close to ready to throw it. These guys are dumb enough to ignore the latter reason, and this results in them holding onto a bomb that eventually detonates while they are still holding onto it. This of course means that they'll be the ones suffering the effects of the explosive with their hand taking the most damage. However, this does not just apply to those who start the bomb. This can also apply to those who grab an active bomb and take too long to get rid of it. In video games, this can happen to the player if they are not careful, and they will take damage for it. Characters who do this are likely to suffer from Explosive Stupidity. Dynamite Candle is also a possibility. Can also occur with grenades if characters decide to Throw the Pin. Compare Where's the Kaboom?, Grenade Hot Potato, Pineapple Surprise, Jumping on a Grenade, Sticky Bomb, and Strapped to a Bomb. Very much Truth in Television: numerous people are injured every year with fireworks or other explosive devices that detonate while they're still holding them. Don't Try This at Home. |

Sport Goofy in Soccermania: During the last seconds of the game, the Beagle Boys rig a soccer ball with a remote bomb and leave it up to one to detonate it the moment Goofy kicks it. However, Goofy manages to score because said Beagle Boy was pushing the wrong button. This results in another one taking the remote and pushing the correct button while the bomb was in their hands. | |

Men of War: In all games in the series you can take a soldier under your direct control and cook a grenade before throwing it (something that AI never does). Waiting for too long, naturally, makes the grenade explode too early, including right in the solder's hand. Curiously, explosions in the series are severely underpowered, so a full-health solder is likely to survive it. | |

Any character who has explosives as part of their moveset also falls under this. The Links pull out active bombs for their down special (except for the incarnation of Link in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate who uses remote bombs), and Snake's neutral has him pulling the pin out of a grenade and priming himself to toss it. These specials can inflict self-damage if you leave your character holding them for too long and in certain cases this can even be used intentionally to aide in their recovery. | |

Looney Tunes:. "Operation: Rabbit": This happens twice. First, Bugs Bunny hands Wile E. Coyote a lit stick of dynamite; Wile. E is smart enough to douse the fuse, but is too busy bragging to notice the lit fuse on the other end. Later, Wile E. has to dispose of an exploding robot meant for Bugs by throwing it out the window, but it detonates right in his hands. In one of his attempts to catch the road runner, Wile E. prepares to throw a lit stick of dynamite with a slingshot, only for it to explode in his hand. In another he makes a lasso with lit dynamite sticks, but no road runner comes... |

The Legend of Zelda: In all gamesnote bar Zelda II: The Adventure of Link in which Link doesn't use bombs, and The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild in which he uses remote bombs, bombs become active the moment they are taken out of the bomb bag. From The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past onwards, Link is capable of picking them up and throwing them. However, holding onto them for too long will result in them exploding on Link, hurting him. Interestingly, in The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening, bombs that are picked up have their fuses reset and freeze while Link is holding them. Link also can't be harmed by his own bomb explosions. | |

Demoman from Team Fortress 2 has a melee weapon called the Ullapool Caber that is a WWII-style German hand grenade that he uses as a mace, with predictably explosive results. For Soldier's taunt kill, he pulls a grenade off his bandolier, thrusts in into the air, and lets it explode in his fist. It kills him and any enemies standing too close for comfort. |

The Call of Duty franchise often lets you hold a live grenade in your hand for a bit before you throw it, referred to as "cooking" a grenade, so it hopefully explodes near an enemy while giving them less time to throw it back or get away. While a valid tactic, it slides into this trope if you either miscalculate the time you have left before throwing or forget about it entirely. It can be easy to do either when in the middle of a firefight. At least one of the games in the series lets you cook grenades in one hand while holding your gun with the other, so you can still shoot while getting ready to throw. This even works if you're dual wielding weapons, though obviously you'll have to put one down to get a grenade ready. This primarily applies to standard frags, though. Special ordinance like semtex, flashbangs, and molotovs can be held indefinitely until thrown. |

Dota 2: If the Alchemist charges his Unstable Concoction ability for too long, it will blow up in his hand and stun him. This is a much bigger downside than it seems because, due to game mechanics, he can only throw the Concoction at enemy heroes, meaning he has a very real chance of blowing himself up if he uses it too early or the enemy can get away from him. | |

Looney Tunes: Back in Action: During the car chase in Vegas, one of Sam's goons lights a stick of dynamite to throw at the heroes. When they make a turn, the goon refuses to throw the stick out as to not hurt any innocent people despite Sam's demands. This results in the dynamite he is holding blowing up on them. | |

In the movie Justice League: The Flashpoint Paradox the Justice League must disable bombs attached to Flash's Rogues Gallery. Superman just puts both hands around it and lets it explode. | |

In Mass Effect: Andromeda, cooking a grenade too long will result in it exploding in your hand unless you took the Sticky Grenade upgrade. | |

Pokémon: The Original Series: In the episode Pokémon Paparazzi, Ash and Todd are struggling to not fall down a waterfall after one of Team Rocket's traps. James throws bombs at them, making them slowly slip. Just as he is about to throw one more, Ash uses Todd's camera to pretend to be taking the bad guys' photo, distracting them long enough for the bomb to go off in James' hand. They don't really get hurt, however, just covered in soot. | |

Super Smash Bros.: This trope can happen to anybody who grabs a bob-bomb or sticky bomb and hold on to them for too long. Both become active the moment they are picked up, so it is important to throw them soon, or they will blow up on you instead. In Super Smash Bros. Brawl onward, Electrode can also be picked up. However, he is seconds away from detonating when one can do so, which means that you will have to immediately throw him the instant you pick him up. Any character who has explosives as part of their moveset also falls under this. The Links pull out active bombs for their down special (except for the incarnation of Link in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate who uses remote bombs), and Snake's neutral has him pulling the pin out of a grenade and priming himself to toss it. These specials can inflict self-damage if you leave your character holding them for too long and in certain cases this can even be used intentionally to aide in their recovery. Super Smash Bros Ultimate features Bomber as an item that can be picked up. Whoever picks it up will lift it above their head upon usage and let Bomber explode in their hands, damaging everybody near them. Unlike other examples though, the person holding Bomber remains unharmed. However, Bomber will harm the holder if left unused for too long. |
