When this face-up Attack Position card is attacked by a monster on your opponent's side of the field, before damage calculation is resolved in the Damage Step, this card inflicts damage to your opponent's Life Points equal to the ATK of the attacking monster. Then, after damage calculation is resolved, this card is destroyed.
It won't be destroyed either if for some reason a monster on the same side of the field attacks him (ie. Ancient Lamp)
One other thing to note, just in case, it will only 'self-destruct' when it is attacked while in Attack Position. It will not 'self-destruct' if attacked while in Defense Position.
It's funny how I put off using this card for the longest when I first got it because I thought it worked that way as well. I was like, "Man, this card sucks!! He can't even attack without blowing up!!!"
