The Ultimate Explosive Fails Compilation Shows Why You Should Always Be Respectful Of Fireworks

Messing around with fireworks may seem like a great idea at the time, but it often ends up in disaster as this compilation of people failing hard shows—and sometimes luckily missing out on a serious injury.

The sensible thing to say would be "Don't try this at home," but most of the clips are home movies so home is where the trouble started in the first place.

But next time one of your friends thinks it's a grand idea to unleash an excessive amount of fireworks in the street or put one on their head, show them this six and a half minutes of fail and hopefully that should change their mind.
