The act of exploding is actually quite fun. We never actually hold hands when defusing the bomb. Disarming it requires the right set of instructions, and that's where another player - or a team of people if you want to share the tension - armed with a manual come in, describing step-by-step how to stop it going off.įor example, one of the bomb's modules will feature a series of coloured wires, and by describing their colours the team can work out which to cut based on rules such as, 'If there are two red wires and no yellows, then cut the blue wire'.
