Add debounce. It would look like this

local debounce = false

function onTouched(hit)
if debounce == true then return end
debounce = true
    wait(5)

    explosion = Instance.new("Explosion")

    explosion.BlastRadius = 20

    explosion.BlastPressure = 20000

    explosion.Position = hit.Position

    explosion.Parent = game.Workspace

wait(15)
--debounce = false
--Uncomment that if you want it to happen again
    end





script.Parent.Touched:connect(onTouched)

There is also a wiki article - http://wiki.roblox.com/index.php?title=Debounce
