How do I make a part explode a player when touched?

I would like for the player to explode upon the part being touched by said player.
So far, I have not found any solutions and I have been looking on the hub and such.

Basically, I am just trying to mess around with a few things out of pure boredom. One of which was because of a comment someone had made on Discord mentioning something about a metal playground slide that’d been sitting out during the summer. I wanted to post a video in response simply to kind of mess around with them.

Here’s an example code, it should achieve what you want.

local function byebyePlayer(hit)
	if hit.Parent:FindFirstChildWhichIsA("Humanoid") then
		local Explosion = Instance.new("Explosion", workspace)
		Explosion.Position = hit.Parent.HumanoidRootPart.Position
	end
end


workspace.Part.Touched:Connect(byebyePlayer)

You could use the .touched event and this way to make a custom explosion or to simplify things u could just do Instance.new(“Explosion”)

local partToTouch = path
local explosionRange = 15
local explosionDamage = 10

function Explode()
    local attachment = Instance.new("Attachment")
    attachment.Position = partToTouch.Position
    attachment.Parent = workspace.Terrain

    local hit = {}
    for _,v in pairs(workspace:GetChildren()) do
            if v:IsA("Model") and v:FindFirstChildOfClass("Humanoid") then
                if (v.Position-attachment.Position).Magnitude < explosionRange and not hit[v] then
                    hit[v] = true

                    v:FindFirstChildOfClass("Humanoid"):TakeDamage(explosionDamage)
                    --knockback
                    local bv = Instance.new("BodyVelocity")
                    bv.MaxForce = Vector3.new(15000,15000,15000)
                    bv.Velocity = (v.Position-attachment.Position).Unit*30+Vector3.new(0,math.random(10,15),0)
                    bv.Parent = v
                    game.Debris:AddItem(bv,.5)
                end
            end
        end
       attachment:Destroy()
    end
end


partToTouch.Touched:Connect(function(touched)--touched
   if touched and touched.Parent then
      if touched.Parent:FindFirstChildOfClass("Humanoid") and touched.Parent:FindFirstChild("HumanoidRootPart") then --if it contains the basics of a player
         Explode()
         partToTouch:Destroy()
      end
   end
end)

In this case since it is mainly a troll I believe this would be the best answer

A really simple script.

script.Parent.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
	local Humanoid = hit.Parent:FindFirstChildOfClass("Humanoid")
	if Humanoid then
		local Explosion = Instance.new("Explosion")
		Explosion.Parent = script.Parent
		Explosion.Position = script.Parent.Position
	end
end)

local part = script.Parent

part.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
	local hitModel = hit:FindFirstAncestorOfClass("Model")
	if not hitModel then return end
	local hitPlayer = players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hitModel)
	if not hitPlayer then return end
	local explosion = Instance.new("Explosion")
	explosion.Parent = part
end)

Use an explosion instance to achieve this.

Insert a local script in the part and put this

local part = script.Parent

part.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
	local hitModel = hit:FindFirstAncestorOfClass("Model")
	if not hitModel then return end
	local hitPlayer = players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hitModel)
	if not hitPlayer then return end
	local explosion = Instance.new("Explosion")
	explosion.Parent = part
end)
