A Georgia man lost his leg this week after he packed a lawn mower full of explosives and repeatedly shot at it with a rifle until it blew up, according to local media reports.

David Pressley, 32, and friends allegedly packed the lawn mower full of Tannerite, an explosive powder that's used by marksmen to create explosive targets.




In video they shot of the incident, which was obtained by 11Alive, Pressley can be seen firing on a few targets before setting his sights on the volatile piece of lawn equipment.
