We here at Fireworkswar.com understand that what we do is extremely dangerous and do not recommend that you try anything we do at home. Basically, we do NOT set a good example for how fireworks should be enjoyed. Below are links to several great resources on how to stay safe while handling fireworks. We cannot and will not be held responsible if you do something stupid with these miniature explosives (to review our disclaimer, click here).
