TNT

TNT Crates, also known as dynamite or TNT boxes, are an explosive used by Pigs in Angry Birds. Once struck, the TNT Crates explode, destroying objects within a short radius and send things flying away within a larger one. TNT Crates can prove to be quite useful for the player, since a large, fortified structure can fall when blown up. TNT Crates appear in Angry Birds, Angry Birds Rio, Angry Birds Seasons, Angry Birds Space, Angry Birds: On Thin Ice, Angry Birds Star Wars, and Bad Piggies. TNT Crates also are featured in Golden Egg levels. They first appear in Theme 2-15 and if hit, they give you five hundred (500) points.

Trivia

 * In Angry Birds Telepizza, TNT is replaced by Jalapeño Boxes.
 * Black Pumpkins act as TNT in Ham'o'ween and Haunted Hogs when destroyed.
 * In Red Planet, there are fire meteors that explode in the same way.
 * In the newest update of Angry Birds, Birdday Party, there is also a new thing, Exploding Cake. The exploding cake is a black cake with the words "TNT" on it. When hit, it does something a little different. Instead, it turns into frosting like balls and doesn't seem to do much damage from the TNT crate its self, though it has the similar idea.
 * In Angry Birds Friends Winter Tournament, there is a gift power up with gifts falling from the sky, then they unwrap into TNT crates, which all explode.
