  • 1 of 5: The security guard isn't stupid. He knows a bomb is about to go off.
  • 2 of 5: He won't open the door as long as the bomb is ticking.

  • 4 of 5: Once that is completed, the security guard will open the door for you.
  • 5 of 5: But wait; how could that door protect him from a Mark IV thermonuclear device whose minimum safe distance is 55 km? Maybe he IS stupid!
