    Some guy in South Carolina died after putting fireworks on top of his hat and lighting them. They exploded, causing fatal head trauma. What an utterly pointless way to lose a loved one.

    Life is hard, harder when you're stupid.
  • @FamousHate-l5g
    He was pronounced dead at the scene due to a delayed mortar detonation......meaning; he bent over to look at why a firework didn't go off and it launch into his face decapitating him. Neighbors found remains in their yard. The family witnessed it too.
  • @MissPriss919
    Fireworks and alcohol are a deadly combination
  • @joshjosh575
    Even amateurs know not to put fireworks on their head. Fireworks can be handled by anyone safely with common sense.
  • @pappadudat
    died for some 20 dollar fireworks smh
  • @tompiccioni4027
    With the price of food and gas I don't know how people have hundreds of dollars to for this nonsense
  • @cb2291
    The problem is that even when fireworks are legal everyday people don't realize how many get maimed and killed from them each year in their supposedly safe neighborhoods
  • @ronaldcharan2705
    Leave it to the professionals. Now the mother will have to take care of 3 kids on her own.
  • There was another story about a 41 year old man who put the mortar on his head!!!! Needless to say 💀
  • @victorialawhon2251
    Also don't forget how fireworks traumatize service members with PTSD...
  • @shirleyperry3170
    Not a very smart idea when you have two kids, plus one on the way. 🙄😳
  • @jeanettesmith765
    In my apartments, two young teens were shooting off fireworks in the parking lot, and when I told them that it was dangerous and they could catch our roofs on fire, they ran and got their mom who hollered out "Mind your own business, lady."

    I feel for all the animals frightened and lost yesterday😢😢

    Worked in a level one trauma center for five years. None of you all know how much I tried to avoid working the emergency dept on the 4th. Happens all the time
