One time i was nearby a hospital ER and saw a taxi bring a kid in who had his lower jaw and left arm blown off. I vividly remember the flesh hanging from his face and arm and the copious amount of blood he was spilling on the floor. There was also an elderly woman who was with him screeching for help. After talking to a nearby guard who heard what happened i learned her teen son apparently has been playing around with an explosives grade firework which prematurely exploded. There was a time where fireworks in my country were close to being grenades with the amount of gunpowder in them. We also had a lot of cases where people were getting killed because of idiots discharging their guns on the sky during New Years. Stay safe y'all.

We had a full involved structure fire last 4th of July because some kid shot a firework into their neighbors gutter, which lit some spongy material they had in there to keep leaves out which eventually crept it's way into the soffit, crawl space, then proceeded to burn the majority of the house down. Be careful and stay safe everyone.

But I thought losing a hand and burning down a shed in a horrible firecracker accident was my God-given American right! For real though, thanks for everything you guys do, Jason!

This is really interesting, since in Finland its Midsummer party (25.6 this year) that's the reallymajor thing in summer. We don't have fireworks tho, but its always a gamble of just how many people will drown every year... also, the amount of fire/police/medical emergencies is just unfathomable.

Ok the one thing that would make this even MORE epic, would be if Jason did the entire bit with a Red White and Blue patriotic latex swim cap on!!! 🤪

I'm already sick of the fireworks going off. Sad part is it will go on for another week after 7/4. Every night I got to take care of the dogs and cat and put a cover over my hives as last year they set the top on fire.

This is why if I ever decide to do anything with fireworks, I’m going to get archery lessons first. That way I can light the fuse with an arrow from a distance. And also because archery is cool.

Have you ever seen the 1992 Barcelona Olympics flame ceremony? They did exactly that. That moment set the bar and kicked off the grand lighting of the flame ceremonies of subsequent Olympics, with each one topping off the next.

My son was a champion archer for the last 20 years of his life, and he actually did get so good, he was able to light fuses with a flaming arrow. His death had nothing to do with archery, though he did die in a gruesome manner.
