explosive expert

Demolition trained professional

An explosive expert is someone with specialized knowledge in explosives, whether for demolition, military operations, bomb disposal, or pyrotechnics.

The term covers both those who design and deploy explosives and those trained to safely neutralize them.

The explosive expert examined the suspicious package before the bomb squad arrived.

In casual use, the phrase sometimes appears humorously to describe anyone particularly skilled at creating chaos or dramatic situations.
