Luke Cage Season 2: 22 WTF Moments

8. Bushmaster Almost Kills Himself (Episode 9, "For Pete's Sake")

After Bushmaster and his forces battle Luke and co. at the Rand facility, the authorities arrive and arrest Bushmaster. But he has a contingency plan up his sleeve, albeit a hugely risky one which instantly confirms his status as both the most bada** and the most insane character in the whole season.

While locked in the paddy wagon with a number of armed guards, Bushmaster detonates a small explosive device, presumably killing both guards and very nearly himself.

Bushmaster only survives his significant injuries with some help from Tilda's medicinal concoction known as Nightshade, and it was a pretty crazy/ballsy move threatening his own life so severely without having some more Nightshade to hand. What a madman.
