These hoo-haa sticks are making the news currently. Can you detect explosives with magical divining rods?
Here's a blog with lots of information about the devices:

Lots of different makes and models available.
It would be great if you could get your hands on some samples of these highly expensive gizmos and make a comparative test to see which of the rods is the most efficient at doing nothing

And because you need some explosives to test with, I'm expecting a big boom too!

yes they will!
but only for the first mine, then you would have to get another "believer"

ive seen shows of people using "divining rods" to do just about everything. crop circles, pregnancy tests, ley lines, the miracle of 2 bent metal rods.

as to wether or not they work, im a skeptic but there are those that swear by them.

No, they don't work.
