We use metals for thousands years and still discover new properties they possess. Here it is experimentally shown that one the unknown properties of metal is its inertial explosion induced by mechanical impact. Unexpected characteristics of this explosion and parameters of its products are presented in comparison to the previously described electrical explosion of thin metal films and wires.
