I think that was potassium-permanganate and sugar. It was one of the saner recipes ( who really wants to blow their face off or smoke banana skins ) with somewhat easily available ingredients.
It was legit. But the temperature window between melting the ingredients together and igniting it was very narrow. We did what your friend did, we made the smoke bomb and also set it off in one go.
My lab partner and I made the most reactive version of this we could and got it ripping hot before dropping in a gummy bear. Then we stood under the fume hood making lightsaber noises.
Lol that is the exact same thing that happened to him. He said he fucked up the temperature and ignited it.
Somehow, he DIDN’T get in a ton of shit for it. The teachers and fire department didn’t figure out it was an intentional smoke bomb. So they never questioned him about it. He dodged a bullet for sure! That was pre-9/11 and Columbine, so I’m sure kids in a similar situation today would be absolutely fucked.

Your friend must’ve been in a while ton of shit.
