Thanks man.
Now, as a contribution, I found out that there's a mod called "you are the creeper". You are a creeper, making friends with other mobs, growing other creepers, and attacking miners. Apparantly, you can explode like a creeper does, but I'm not sure if that kills you.
Here's a link if anyone's interested...
