It would take about 635 kg of c4 to launch a person (and nothing else) into space. here's a camaro.

But that's if it doesn't obliterate them first.

true since the person would break up into smaller pieces, wouldn't those smaller pieces have less momentum?

Here's another chemical that can 'take someone to space'. You only need a few grams...

What if it was a series of controlled explosions? i.e. a second c4 explosion at 50,000 feet?

I was thinking of superman like invulnerability.

*note to self*

Keep Bricks occupied and away from C4, avoid "space program"

Join my space program, man. No C4 involved, but there might be some other chemicals. And the urge to eat like 20 tacos. Speakin' of that I got mad munchies man, you got a dorito bag over there?

Hmm.. a game like Kitten Cannon comes in mind, when I think of stuff like this.

I enjoy alcohol, pot, and the occasional dosage of shrooms. Your shit sounds too heavy for me;

Oh, don't worry about me getting my hands on c4, I'm already on like, 7 terrorist watchlists.

So is the blast from the 635kg of c4 directed through a tube right at the person's feet, or are you just sitting on a pile of it in a field, and the rest of it spreads out sideways.

I wouldn't know, I just calculated it from the chemical potential energy of c4, and the amount of energy it would take to hurl something into space. But I would suppose tube filled with c4 would be optimal
