Not to be horribly picky but isn't plastic explosive electrically activated rather tan heat activated?

I believe the electricity supplies the heat. It needs heat and a 'shock' to blow. The Mythbusters blew up a hunk of C4 by sticking it in the microwave with a blasting cap in it.

"With a blasting cap"
I dunno.. Just something that bugged me about that.
and in fairness, who's to say it's C4 and not some explosive that doesn't exist in reality.
