Fireworks don’t typically go off when you step on them.

This was some form of pressure triggered explosive.

unless the people who had it lit it and ran so fast they weren’t seen, I don’t see how stepping on fireworks makes them go off. unless you have a lighter attached to your foot

4th tomorrow suggest that he, or his friend, was lighting fireworks unsafely. I’ve watched people throw m80s, and bigger, at each other’s feet.

Someone could have placed some nitrogen triiodide there which doesn’t take much to set it off.

See the video.
