HAPPY 4TH EVERYBODY ...we got started a lil early at my house..

(my friend was over with his super nice 1000 dollar camera, the video is with my point and shoot)

the shot of RyRy shooting the cannon didn't turn out, and he didn't wanna do it again , too much kick .. but he definitely thought it was cool 8)

fireworks are banned here,except for darwin/NT.before they were banned when we were kids we made a cannon that fired marbles,man that was dangerous.that might be why they got banned?

they are banned here in Illinois as well .... we have to go to Wisconsin to get the good ones ..then hope the cops don't show up  ;D ;D

lucky for me , my house is in an unincorporated  part of the city , tucked back in a ravine , and my neighbors are pretty easy going

Gee on the 4th a bunch of people are going to block off part of 2 streets and launch almost anything a person can get their hands on! one of the guys has a pyrotech license and so it should look like a warzone again this year. I used to go to a local college for their fireworks show, yeah not anymore!

I'm pretty sure REAL fireworks are about to be legal in MI. I sure hope they are...
That's what I'd like to hear.

Did you get any gutter bustin gob stoppers or satins suppositories? How about some "look ma no thumbs" bombs?

Just found out you can have fun with "not real" fireworks... Check it out, not sure how safe this one is. As far as legality goes, well we know the answer to that ::)

There is a video of a much larger one. This one has 240 sparklers in it, I found a video of a 3,000 sparkler explosion, but you have to watch a lot of BS before you actually see the thing go off.
That's what I'd like to hear.
