I did that and the darn screen didn't break, making it even more dangerous.

My first CRT destruction was when I was 10 - I guess - and don't laugh, I strung a 5 pound club hammer up to the ceiling on string aimed at the neck, let go and ran. No bang. Of course it missed... it worked second time, and was all quite an anticlimax.
