No. The metal cylinders that some social media posts claim are explosives disguised as food cans are actually containers for M603 fuzes, which are designed to detonate landmines. These fuzes are not activated by opening the container, but by applying a large amount of force. https://www.politifact.com/factchecks/2024/feb/01/instagram-posts/no-viral-footage-doesnt-show-explosives-disguised/

Tweet embedding is no longer reliably available, due to the platform's instability (in terms of both technology and policy). If the Tweet still exists, you can view it here: https://twitter.com/foo_bar/status/1753424456318427390
Please note, though, that you may need to have your own Twitter account to access that page. I am currently exploring options for archiving Tweet data in a post-API context.
