Daylight Saving Time Mistake Blows up Car Bomber

Here's another reason to be wary of Daylight Saving Time. Apparently on April 1st, during the wee hours of the beginning of Daylight Saving Time, a bumbling bomber in Dublin. Ireland accidentally blew himself up by setting the timer on the bomb he was planting to go off an hour earlier than expected. Police theorize that the "bomber got his timings wrong" and "the timer went off too soon." The unidentified bomber was seen fleeing from the wreckage of a ruined Volvo SUV on Sunday evening, while “dripping in blood” after the device that was attached to the vehicle went off early. "It could be a case where he didn’t put his watch forward on Sunday [at 1am] and the timer went off too soon,” according to the London Daily Mirror. After the explosion, the man was seen getting into a taxi. Supt. Dave Taylor of Ireland’s Garda press office stated. “It was a very extensive explosion and it was a very frightening experience for the people on Long Lane.”
