Related fun fact: Dynamite was invented by Alfred Bernhard Nobel.
Nobel didn't want his legacy to be one of destruction, so he founded the Nobel prizes that are still awarded today.

Of course Dynamite is now used almost exclusively for non-violent uses now in any event, so perhaps that's a non-issue.
Even thought dynamite is more powerful than TNT, it's not castable, and is much more unstable, so TNT and other explosives have completely displaced dynamite in the military.
