I'm not saying it's impossible, just not guaranteed to happen.

If you don't like it, by all means, don't do it. But, a couple bucks an maybe I'll get another flat, or I can drop 300 for a new one.

Also, they wouldn't explosively decompress. They'd lose air just like a normal flat..

You must've missed my previous post where I said I plugged a new Pilot Power that had 10 miles on it. I wasn't berating anybody for doing it, just commenting that I saw them fail more than once.

It was like a scene out of a horror movie, too. There was the sound of air coming out of a tire, then we stopped at the next gas station and repaired the tire and continued our ride.

i plugged one that had a hole after putting it on 100miles ago, i had a full life outof it and it never leaked or anything, cant say that it was the smartest thing to do, but on a college budget it worked well enough and yes it was a patch plug combination, went to teh gap and it felt like everyother pp i have ever ran
