What's new

Moon Rocks and lobster boy

Every one of these situations came from buying a cheap POS mortar tube, correct?
 
I think I mentioned this a year back

about 10 y/o old, I had a single Lady Finger go off in my hand due to me trying to out smart a short fuse and I learned right there not to be effing with that kind of stuff that way

damn that hurt

Meh, I've head one in my hand before, but I held it by the tube not the base. The tube blew out of my had leaving a square bruise on my leg:homer:.
Stupid being Stupid :homer:

I don't understand people that don't think staying away from an uncontrolled fire source is a good idea.

Safe and sane, my ass

Obviously

Have a good time. I'll save my money and my digits
 
this ones pretty tame compared to some of you geniuses :flipoff2:

last year, the neighbors had some of these things, look like a firecracker but theyre just really loud snap things you throw on the ground like the little bag things

the kid threw one down a couple times and it didn't go off, we all assume its a dud. So I pick it up and roll it between my fingers... turns out that was enough pressure to set it off. just had numb fingertips for the rest of the night, but I don't think I'll be doing that again :homer:

I have some of those, somewhere.
 
I hold firecrackers in my hand and light them :laughing:. Just the regular little ¼x1½" ones.
Same, but nothing bigger than a little blackcat, or the waterproof ones I toss into a water bottle or drop into a lake to watch fish float up stunned.
 
Coworker showed me this, Said it happened in Clovis Ca.
My brother and nephew are here in Sac, from Clovis. My nephew mentioned earlier today that a kid in his school blew off their hand by putting a mortar in a glass jar. Confirmed with him that is the video :lmao:

Why is it that every useless video has perfect clarity and stability, but the videos of stuff that should be seen look like shit?

Clovis doesn't breed good, never has :laughing:
 
A guy I used to work with had a black powder splitting wedge. He said one time when he was a kid they had it in a piece of wood and set it off, instead of splitting the wood the wedge launched through the side of their machine shed. :laughing:

It looked like a mortor tube in the video my coworker showed me, the video was severely degraded after texting it to my phone.
 
30 acre fire nearby from an event venue setting off fireworks. After 14 years in CO it baffles me watching all these idiots setting off fireworks everywhere when it's been dry as a bone. I get it, wildfire isn't near the issue here as it is out there but occasionally we get the conditions to be ripe for it. We're there right now.
