What the Heck Was I Saying Again Junkrat
This post is the 12th [Tanks | Bastion | Doomfist | Genji | Hanzo] in a project I'm carrying out to compile all the lore on every individual hero, scattered through the various pieces of media we're provided with. While I'm sure many people already know all of this, it's intended to be a good starting point for people who don't, and a good reference point to those who do. This post will include links to official media, screenshots and descriptions of voice lines.
This postwill not include sprays, nor any kind of analysis, speculation or theories. However, itis important to note that every piece of media is being given to us through the perspective of an unreliable narrator, so while the material is canon, it may not be the truth of the situation.
(Rest under the cut.)

Junkrat's 'home map' is Junkertown, where the player can find his room, which is full of bombs and traps.

However, he is not allowed within the town itself, and is supposed to be shot on sight should he enter the town.

Additionally, on Dorado and Castillo, the player can find a CCTV camera photo of him and leftover paraphernalia from when he and Roadhog broke into the Dorado bank.
