I always assumed that the Joker had secretly swapped the detonators (i.e., you push the button, and the ship you're on is the one that goes).

This would fail to create the hysteria he was looking when the ship that didn't detonate the bomb also didn't explode. The hysteria he wants comes from getting people to actually commit things they wouldn't normally do.

hmmm...make it so that when one of the two ships hit the detonator, both explode?
