What Forces Cause an Airbag to Jump When Detonated?

[QUOTE="Urpoz, post: 6402649, member: 682664"] Let me explain: In the Finnish forum for extremely stupid people like myself, I stumbled on this kind of silly dilemma: You have an airbag, and you put it on the ground, airbag pointing upwards. When you detonate it, it will jump up and fly. What force make it jump? Is it that expanding bag which is dragging itself off the ground, gas from the explosion, opposite force of explosion towards the ground, or something completely different? [/QUOTE]
