Flint Nodule ..... or not?

I went to my favourite place to find jasper looking for some pieces when I found this, it's a flint nodule, or is it?
 
 
Now anytime I've found nodules like this they have always been flint but there was just something about this piece that had me suspecting that it could be jasper..really? I've never found any this big before so it would be a first, only one way to find out and that's break it open! So lets just do it!!
 
 
and guess what, deep, dark and red and we all know what stone that is..YEAHHHHH!!!
