>>A firecracker does not have metal in it. Usually, a mine does.
A firework will burn you severely, but even a mortar round will not blow a leg off. I’m thinking someone place an explosive to bomb Elie Weisel’s funeral and this guy found it and accidentally detonated it.
Are you talking about a firework mortar round? Because a military 60mm, 81mm, etc. mortar round will most definitely blow a leg off...turn you into paste if you're in the kill radius.
