Oh great, ive been waiting for a thread like this...
Okay, you see, my neihbor is the oh so great and holy selectman of the town, the perfect guy. So on 4th of July he gets a bunch of motar tubes, about 300 fireworks, and 90 kegs, yes kegs, of beer and has a party. Everyone getts drunk and they start lighting off fireworks at about 9 o'clock. The mortar tubes are set up hastaly and the day is windy. He starts lighting all the fireworks, and at about 10:30 we call the fire department to tell him to shut up because its too late for him to set off fireworks (10:00 is the latest here).
By the time the fire marshal gets to our house we had to call the fire department again because my BARN WAS ON FIRE, a bunch of the fireworks lauched and then fell on the barn wile they where burning and set the barn alight. Luckaly the fire department reasponded quickly and put out the fire befor it killed everything. But we couldn't take him to court because he had a permit, he practically owned the town, and even if we did he has enough money to either buy the best lawer of bribe the judge, douche bag.

My brother once got glass in his arm from shrapnel putting those little dynamite sticks in a water-filled beer bottle. What an idiot.
I was blowing up structures in my sandbox with firecrackers when I leaned over one to light it and it blew up almost instantly. I got a ton of sand in my eyes and had to stumble my way back into the house to get to a sink. No permanent damage but I was picking sand out of the corners of my eyes for the next few hours.
I have tons of stories about cocking around with fireworks.
My brother and me had some left over from guy fawkes day so we went round a friends house, into his back garden, stuck them all in the ground and lit them. One wasnt lit properly though so it fell over (it was a rocket), it bounced off his fence and exploded in his neighbours tree. For some reason the tree didn't catch fire though, so we never told his neighbour.
Also, I know a guy(read:fucking nutter) that blew the skin off one of his hand with homemade fireworks. There was just a pile of the stuff on the floor and he totters over to light the stuff (completely shitfaced) I'm like "dude, you sure that's safe?", he goes "Stop being such a pussy" BOOM. So I had to take him to him to A&E, funniest thing was when I was getting him in the car and he said "You can't drive, you shouldn't drink and drive".
Worst injury I ever got from a firework was being hit in the knee with a bottle rocket, I heard a whistling sound and then was like "Fuck." didn't see it coming. On the plus side though, I can make it click now.

But exploding things are FUN.Xorghul said:
You're no fun >:O
Seriously though, just give em a try! As long as you go to open areas where fire won't be a problem, and also make sure that you just practice safety first, they can be a fucking BLAST. <--- Ha ha pun
One night on the fourth of july, i got the crap scared out of me when one of my friends was setting off bottle rockets and roman candles
He thought the boxes were empty, so he threw them in the bonfire. I was standing nearby, and i hear someone say "Wait, i thought there were two roman candles." followed by "OH S***!" and then the fire made a series of booming sounds, and emitted shrapnel.

Thankfully not suffered any injuries from them, but had a little **** shoot one at me on the way home><
