Fireworks are fun in part because of the danger and every year there are going to be a few people who have not realized that they will be short a finger or two before Independence day is over. No one appears to have lost a finger here…but the Minivan can’t be faring well.
More than a few safety rules were ignored, not the least of which is the method of storage and location.
And having been witness to something similar I can tell you that you can’t run fast enough to get away from the chaos that ensues when nearby fireworks go off before you are ready for that to happen.
