been watching Mythbusters have you ?
Yes, they (Mythbusters) screwed it up. Of course Kirk knew the exact proportions for gun powder in his head. He was a collector of antique weapons. He also would have reinforced the bamboo from the inside as well. (Scotty slipped him some transparent aluminum.) They just didn't show that part for pacing reasons. Picard would have still been trying to negotiate as the Gorn was cutting out his heart.
