You know the kids in the Den that steal stuff from you? Well, I finally decided to "take care" of them by dropping my inventory (into the trunk) and carrying only LIT dynamite in the inventory and walk past all the kids. (You must also lock the 2 shops' doors so the kids can't give it to the shop.)
This was a suggestion made in this dude's walkthrough:

Anyway, I tried a bunch of different ways of doing it, but the kids never wanted to steal a bomb set to 10 seconds (shocking!). By locking the shop doors and setting the bombs to 1 minutes however, the kids did sometimes snatch it. Ready for the punchline?
The game just freezes
You hear the explosion, but no "kid exploding" animation.
Anyway, now you don't have to try it.
