Cops really don’t like it when you blow up a bomb in their face.

Being a police officer can be a dangerous job. Sure, it’s not as dangerous as construction or being a pizza boy (and that’s according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics!), but still, dangerous!

One of the reasons behind this danger is that you never know what the average Joe has going on in their head — or in this case, in their car. This cop pulled a man over for a traffic stop and, upon investigating his (incredibly messy) car, somehow activated a pipe bomb.

The officer was not injured and, understandably, the man in question is facing a looooong prison sentence.
