Dynamite was potentially deadly in warfare. The war that first used Nobel's dynamite was [[World War One]]. Alfred didn't live to see the destruction it caused in the war and to realize that his conception about dynamite bring peace was completely wrong. Nobel's dynamite has been replaced by military dynamite, which only has approximately 60% of the strength of his dynamite.
