There's no "if's", "buts", "maybes" or delays. It WILL go BOOM!
If for some reason it doesn't immediately detonate, almost nothing will make it go off - it's either fake, a dud, or an AT mine and the person wasn't heavy enough to trigger it in the first place.
Seems to me the Outstanding Success/Catastrophic Failure mechanism already covers this.

You can substitute the term/phrase "an IED with a deadman's delay trigger" and you still get the picture. It's a COMMON Hollywood trope.
