Question:

How can I burst a copper pipe running water on purpose?

I am training to be a plumber and we have to try to do everything we can to burst a pipe. I need ideas! Easy ideas!

Answer:

assuming normal pressure, your only bet would be to freeze the water in it and have no where for the water to go.
not going to happen ive seen type m 1/2 copper hold 600psi
Do what trimmers do.punch a nail thru a 'standardized' nail plate right into a supply line - it happens
yes any heat products (blow dryers, flat irons etc) will ruin your hair ceramic/ionic ones don't ruin it as much
any type of heat can damage your hair, so in all aspects, yes it can ruin your hair,but curling your hair in the rightful manner can actually help your hair, but you shouldn't apply heat to your hair every day ( especially if you blow try) so try 2 every weak, and that should do anything
