Look up “Butt Rocket “ on YouTube. Some kid lets his “friends “ launch a bottle rocket from his fourth point of contact.

I’m sure the family will sue and then the manufacturer will have to place an additional warning on the item, “Do not ignite on head.”

Yeah, I thought using one’s butt cheeks to launch a bottle rocket was dumb, but all he got was some third degree burns.

Staples and his friends had been drinking prior to the accident...
We need to ban this dangerous drug.

Agreed. Friendships have caused more pain, damage and death even than marriage!

Beat me to it. Another example of excellence in journalism.

You the special effects guy for those godzilla movies? ;-)
Anyways, you used too few fireworks. Only one or two firecrackers when you should have used dozens all at once :-)

All I had on me at the time up visiting the parent’s place. I live in the burbs with too many jerk neighbors and a bit confined here so no fireworks here.
The wind was brutal too, getting anything to light was something in itself. There was a propane torch around but empty.

When I was about 19, I was at a pool party and kids started jumping into the pool from the roof of the house. I thought they were nuts. Then after about nine Budweisers, I’m suddenly on the roof myself, no turning back now.
I closed my eyes and jumped. Friends told me later my head missed the edge of the pool by two inches. I was a damn fool and lucky to be alive today.
To: BunnySlippers
I wonder whom the family will sue.
You have to know someone’s at fault other than the poor victim. ;-)
