Depends on your definition of "starting" a detonation. A detonation is initiated by any number of things- a signal to detonate given by a watcher, a timer, or an action of the victim, such as moving an item. The explosives sequence is usually begun by a detonator- similar to a blasting cap. This contains a small amount of sensitive primary explosive that provides the donor energy to make the main explosive load detonate.
