...with the neighbors hosting a MENSA meeting.

Ground zero is the last place I would be for a couple hours or more.

See LA bomb squad, that's how you do it.

That’s not MENSA, it’s the other IQ Society, DENSA, the other end of the spectrum.

One person yelling for a hose, many people flailing about but doing nothing useful, and even more people just watching the shit show and waiting to catch a rocket in the eye. Brilliant.

surely the local taxpayers were pleased with the le and fire dept. response

Yeah it’s all fun and giggles til some Nam vet gets his PTSD triggered and goes looking for Charlie.

Just try getting your deposit back on that U-Haul.

Right after I graduated high school, a bunch of us had a party in the country at night. We were shooting bottle rockets at each other, dangerous enough at close range if one hits you in the eye. Then, they started in with roman candles, and I got hit in the face by one of those flaming little projectiles. It came in from my right and hit my nose about an inch from my right eye and then glanced off. I don't know what they make those little balls out of, but it was hard enough to fracture my nose and close both my eyes from swelling for a short time.

So, when I see these people standing there with a phone, or worse yet, running towards the exploding stuff, man, what in the world?

Oh, and the gal in the foreground who was "shielding" her kid? Yeah, you suck at shielding- not to mention, that kid should have been out of there before this video even began rolling.

WTF

Looks like a fun neighborhood. As a cop, I learned to hate all holidays. As soon as I got enough seniority to take them as a day off, I did. You just watched the reason why.

I used to go park under a bank drive thru..and clear all my “respond to fireworks” calls with “other” No need..everyone knows it’s New Year’s Eve/July 4th…and yes fireworks are illegal in the city…yes every one is setting them off Karen-relax.

I did find that Thanksgiving is a good day to find that guy who’s had a warrant for six months and ducking you, will be at his momma’s house around 1300-1600….easy pickings

What the hell is wrong with people?



Filming in vertical mode!?

That was some shit I would’ve expected to see in the Simpson’s, not real life

Great Scott, those morons trying to “salvage” what’s left of the delivery we’re really trying to get into the burn ward at the local ER, weren’t they?

Mind the sulfur burns !

Hilarious, thanks for the laughs! I'd be the guy that gets that truck the next day

I had the same thought. But, they’ll probably try to keep it and turn it into a mobile meth lab, or a rolling Love Shack or something.

The explosions would taper off and I would think “Well, that’s finally done…, no, no, wait, not yet.”

Man, I thought the fireworks in my neighborhood were excessive.

Best part around the 3 min mark.

“I’m gonna take him around the back. Grab my cup, my bottle and my cigarettes.” Ahhh gotta love white trash. You keep your kid in the line of fire for 3 min but have the presence of mind to save the booze and cigarettes.

Yikes! “And the rocket’s red glare, the bomb bursting in air...” they surely achieved that!
