Fireworks are a helluva lot of fun, so long as you can tune out all of the people telling you they’re dangerous.

For as long as we’ve had fire, we’ve had people playing with fire (and sometimes getting very, very hurt in the process). Over generations, people turned “playing with fire” into a product to be bought, sold, and occasionally, made in your garage. Today, fireworks are a well-developed field, with explosives that can be bought at the gas station leading to incredible displays of light, color and uncontained fire.

This fireworks display starts off pretty lame, but this little guy’s got a trick up his sleeve. Thank goodness no one parked nearby!
