    Dudes hands are gone if they detonates. Do they really have giant bomb suits but no gloves?

      The suit is there to reduce fatalities and minimize injuries, not to avoid every poasible injury.

      Sometimes there are situations where touch and feel is critical, although my understanding is that the preferred approach today is remote detonation where even the suit is away from the likely blast radius.
