Start the video at 4:41 if the timestamp hasn't carried over to here.
Usually, if something explodes, it ceases to exist because it, uh… exploded.
The mic is still there two frames after the force lifts his t-shirt. You can clearly see the lapel mic being lifted up along with the t-shirt it's attached to from the force of something else. That can't happen if the mic is the source of the force.
Conspiracy grifters have been making insane money pedalling this narrative for the past year, and it's all off your time and attention.
I know there will be some people in the comments arguing that things don't have to disappear after they explode. The cognitive dissonance is strong with this topic for some reason.

SS: Regarding Charlie Kirk, the exploding mic idea, when you can visibly see the mic hasn’t exploded if you slow the footage down, is insulting. People need to think more critically about what the narratives content creators are feeding them.
Kirk’s death may have been a stage production/magic show with blood squib effects.
Air squib is likely why his shirt ballooned.
Erika Kirk and others have all displayed Duper’s Delight.
Rick Cutler doesn’t appear to have a palm pistol as some claim but does seem to be triggering the blood squib.
“The unit is radio controlled and the effect is activated off-screen not involving the actor. This allows perfect visual timing and helps acting.”
