I don’t remember the rules ever telling you to put it on your head and light it.

I agree, there should be a warning not to put explosives on your head. It’s an easy mistake to make, I was about to do it myself before I came across this informative article.

yeah... her idiot special snowflake son isn’t at fault for getting drunk, sticking a fireworks mortar to his face, and then lighting it.
instead, it’s the government’s fault for not protecting him from himself.
seems legit.

Uh, lady, I am very sorry for your loss, but your child did a stupid thing. It was not an accident. He did it on purpose.

They should write a law making it illegal to off powerful explosives on your own head.
Then these tragedies would not occur, and the rest of us can go about our business.

To: RBStealth
Maybe its too soon, but I still don’t know what happened to him. Did he have the baseplate on top of his head and it smacked him, broke his neck, etc?
Did he have it aimed down into his head and it shot down into his brain?
Did the infernal device simply explode and he joined the pink mist club?
Or did it blow and the concussion simply blew out his lamp?
What exactly happened?

They should sell launching helmets, safety tested and approved for this application. /S

So now they want a MENSA test to purchase and use fireworks? Good grief, can’t be accountable for your own actions so let the government be responsible for us? We see how well that works.

Forty five years ago when I was taught how to handle powder, I don’t think anyone warned me specifically not to put a plaster or stick on my head and set it off. I guess I was just lucky that I never did any such thing. The government wasn’t taking good enough care of me.

“The state should consider requiring safety training courses before allowing someone to use them, she said. “
I guess the first thing they should cover in this course is to not launch a firework from your head.
To: RBStealth
Ive never seen a firework that did not say “light fuse, get away.”
Stupid is as stupid does. At least he won’t be reproducing.

Devon Staples was killed on the Fourth of July during a party in Calais, Maine, after he put a fireworks mortar to his head and set it off.
