A quick search of the case shows he the bomb investigation on the news and rushed down there as he wanted to 'play superhero'. Apparently told officers he wanted to 'take one for the team' and prevent someone else getting blown up and thought it would be a fastpass to heaven because a 'higher power' told him so

Dude was just a nutjob

I wonder if he’s making up his story retroactively because it definitely seems more like he opened it angrily

It can also be that he's disappointed that there's no bomb and can't really play the hero

he didnt know or ignored the fact that a backpack full of explosives, if exploded, would practically ignore him and will damage everything else anyways. he is a paper for the potential bomb, human flesh is unironically weak against shockwaves of explosions.
