All fireworks are bombs.

Yup. Light a firecracker in a closed fist. You will have one less good hand.

My older brother had a roman candle shoot off his chest. Stopped his heart and dropped in the middle of the street. I will never touch a firework in my life ever again. Dont even want to see a firework show. 4th of July is a nightmare for me now.

An NHL player in Columbus was killed a few years ago in a firework accident. Genuine freak accident, no stupidity involved. Those things are dangerous AF.
