The current pic for Grenade Hot Potato is...well, I have no idea what's going on in it. It looks like a bad Photoshop. This one more clearly shows the trope.

The current image would be ok if we crop out that bear. Still not great, mind you, but ok.

Rhetorical, eh? ... Eight!

Heh, Willbyr's suggestion reminds me of The Most Dangerous Game, honestly (not to be confused with The Most Dangerous Game). Probably not a good example, though, given that it's dynamite and not a grenade.

The suggested is definitely more obvious than the current, but I wonder if something better doesn't exist. Don't have any real suggestions on hand...

There was no consensus to put the image there (the OP suggested it, one reply mentions it); I think the image should be pulled, it doesn't add anything.

Also, bad Photoshop, bear casts no shadow...

The tennis racket makes it for me. Supporting replace.

As much as the picture with the bear cracked me up it's a poor image, supporting suggested image.

I can't think of anything good for a signature.

I support switching to the grenade and tennis racket picture.
