[[Cranky Kong]] uses it to wreck Donkey Kong's boom box, as punishment for [[Donkey Kong]] knocking him out of the trees and ruining his phonograph. During gameplay, TNT Drums can be lifted, then tossed on the ground or a wall to explode, defeating any enemy standing in its explosion range. They can also be utilized this way in the sequels, as well as in the ''[[Donkey Kong Land (series)|Donkey Kong Land]]'' games. In both the ''Donkey Kong Land'' series and [[Game Boy Color]] version of ''Donkey Kong Country'', TNT Barrels have a smaller blast radius. | ||
The Kongs do not get injured by running through a TNT Barrel's blast after they throw it. Contrarily, in ''Donkey Kong Country'', if the Kongs lift a TNT Drum and then put it down, it shakes and then immediately explodes, causing the player to lose a Kong. | The Kongs do not get injured by running through a TNT Barrel's blast after they throw it.
