👉 The birthday weapon, also known as the "birthday bomb" or "birthday bomb," is a device that creates a shockwave similar to a gunshot but is designed to be detonated remotely. It works by releasing compressed gas, typically nitrogen or helium, which rapidly expands upon activation, generating a high-pressure shockwave that can cause significant damage. Unlike traditional explosives, the birthday weapon's energy is concentrated in a small area, making it potentially more controllable and less destructive if mishandled. However, its use is highly regulated due to the risk of accidental detonation and the potential for misuse.
