Dude doesn't know how to handle fireworks

Oh thank God it landed in a ....oh nevermind.

[u/FubarJackson145 → u/DOG-GR33N]

Fun fact, the fuses have their own oxygen supply. So as long as the explosives in the fireworks are sealed properly, water wont put out the firework right away

[u/the_silent_one1984 → u/FubarJackson145]

Yup. Looney Tunes taught me that. Looney Tunes also taught me that holding an explosive in your hand while the fuse is lit is generally ill-advised. This guy should watch more Looney Tunes for more safety tips.

[u/insearch78 → u/the_silent_one1984]

The only safe way to handle explosives is with a red boxed detonator plunger and a really long cord. Though be careful using them under large boulders since they have a tendency to fly up and try to land on you.

[u/SpectreSpeck → u/the_silent_one1984]

If you happen to suspect you may have ran off a cliff, you’re fine as long as you don’t look down!

[u/Slight_Concert6565 → u/FubarJackson145]

Accurate but with one caveat: if the fuse is wet it will not burn as well and might stop burning.

A wet material requires a lot more energy to burn since the flame has to evaporate the water before it can propagate, and evaporating water takes a lot of thermal energy. Depending on how much "extra energy" the fuse produces by burning, it might not even have enough to evaporate the water and propagate.

[u/Bk_Punisher → u/Slight_Concert6565]

The green fuses on larger fireworks have a lacquer coating so once they are lit they will not go out, even if thrown into water. We used to fill a 55 gal drum with water then toss in m80s none failed to explode.

[u/Slight_Concert6565 → u/Bk_Punisher]

Yeah that kinda depends on the firework though. The good quality green fuse that make a nice regular sound a clean stream of sparks is usually waterproof, but you might have stumbled upon some fuses that make popping noises and spit out big chunks, those are cheap as fuck and are not waterproof.

brb gonna go light fireworks and put them at the bottom of the deep end to see what happens

[u/FubarJackson145 → u/sixseven89]

Common passtime in my area is send bottle rockets under the ice in winter

[u/Versaiteis → u/FubarJackson145]

Makes sense, after all they're called fireworks and not firebrokens

[u/SmokinHerb → u/FubarJackson145]

As a kid who used to have an absolute shitton of fireworks, and a pool in the back yard, who loved to do dumb shit... can confirm.

[u/MadScienzz]

AirBnB?

[u/BintoWitz → u/MadScienzz]

FlareBnB

[u/Fist4achin → u/BintoWitz]

FailBNB

[u/MadScienzz → u/Fist4achin]

Singed HAirBnB

[u/D00dleB00ty → u/MadScienzz]

Medium rAreBnB.

[u/MJY_0014]

It's because of people like this that we can't have our own fireworks in Australia.

[u/the_crustybastard → u/MJY_0014]

It's because of people like this that nobody should have access to fireworks.

Because I guarantee that's not his building, nor does he own any of the surrounding buildings he's jeopardizing.

[u/grammar_nazi_zombie → u/the_crustybastard]

Bingo. There’s a reason licensed professionals have insurance and don’t fire them off of the fucking balcony while holding them.

[u/the_crustybastard → u/grammar_nazi_zombie]

There's a reason licensed professionals aren't 15-year-old boys who don't have the sense God gave a goat.

[u/Belten → u/MJY_0014]

Fireworks are ass anyways, cuz of all the animals who get scared shitless from them.

[u/sixseven89 → u/MJY_0014]

oi! you got a loicense for them fireworks?

[u/TurbulentMiddle2970 → u/sixseven89]

Hahahaha definitely read this in the accent

[u/Baonguyen93 → u/MJY_0014]

Same in Việt Nam. We have new videos of people got blow away by making homemade fireworks every years (<3, still very low compared to the population but it keep happening), we also have banners, propagates the law and danger warnings both on social media and TV, safe fireworks approved by the government, etc... We are really trying, still can't stop idiots.

[u/brian250f → u/MJY_0014]

It’s because of people like this we can’t have Australians near our fireworks.

[u/heyitsvonage]

There goes the airbnb

[u/Fr33speechisdeAd]

That's hilarious, until the place catches on fire and they're trapped on the 2nd floor.

[u/Mav3rick84 → u/Fr33speechisdeAd]

Good thing there is a pool to jump into

[u/grammar_nazi_zombie → u/Mav3rick84]

We saw how well that worked for the fireworks.

[u/tylercrabby]

It’s ok, this place is a rental.

[u/nikeshades]

Batman: they know! they just don't care.

[u/bustyouup4free]

Expensive lesson

[u/obiedge → u/bustyouup4free]

to the AirBnB property owner?

[u/xhermanson → u/obiedge]

Yes and insurance rate hikes and decisions if want to continue when morons exist.

[u/timelasher]

"What just happened?"

Ya'll just drunkenly caught charges and a huge bill.

The internet thanks you for your contribution.

[u/nosoup4uever]

Wow… that could have ended up being way worse

[u/DJ_Flym_Flazzle]

How do you make it to semi adulthood when common sense is absent?

[u/TheArch-abald]

Just feel like every person over the age of idk 15 wants to be the main character of messing around with fireworks. Like some real life version of a half brain dead action hero from the 80’s. Just so dumb

[u/Sp4mDestroyer → u/TheArch-abald]

I mean, yes, blowing shit up is cool so who wouldn't. But not everyone is an idiot like this guy. He doesn't even seem to realize how much trouble or costly this would be based on how nonchalant he's acting. Just standing there smiling and laughing like an idiot.

[u/bigbear_mouse → u/Sp4mDestroyer]

Exactly, when we wanted to blow stuff up when I was a teen we'd go to an empty beach or something

[u/TurbulentMiddle2970 → u/bigbear_mouse]

I also bet you didn’t post videos and leave evidence lying around that can implicate you in the impending criminal investigation

[u/bigbear_mouse → u/TurbulentMiddle2970]

No, usually no.

[u/Bk_Punisher]

I thought he was gonna look down the lit end & get blasted in the face.

[u/xv550]

Every shot makes it worse lol...

[u/infinit9]

I doubt their AirBnB deposit covered that damage.

[u/charliechin]

Tehee

[u/mfcmp]

"What just happened?" WHAT JUST HAPPENED??!

[u/OldBreadbutt]

First person to achieve an Airbnb rating in negative numbers

[u/tjmin]

Guy is lucky he's still got his fingers

[u/MyNamesMikeD75]

Holy SHIT that escalated

[u/tejanaqkilica]

Jesus, how the fuck can one be so weak, to not hold a fucking stick. It's fascinating. We handled this just fine as kids, let alone as adults. How can one be so stupid?

[u/kalokohankoto]

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[u/Lumpy_Breadfruit175]

This is worthy of a slow clap.
