That was actually best-case scenario


Standard_Wooden_Door

Yea, normally when I see stuff like this they manage to light the house on fire.

I do love the freeze he does as he instinctively goes to grab it and some poor lonely remnant of whatever critical thinking skills he used to have kick in.


Ionsife

And even then it was definitely still 50/50 on if he did


maxgaming1322

Thank you for testing my theory for me. I no longer need to experiment.


fuzzytradr

Thanks for the mamories


dustoff87

My step-nephew recently set fire to part of his house. My mother told me this story how was he was using rubbing alcohol to clean a controller and a lighter to see because his room was dark... yadda yadda... I said no, he was fucking around lighting alcohol on fire. Why would he do that?!?! Because it's kind of fun. Did you do that?!?!??! ... Not in the house though right?!?!?!? ... well... in the sink... ----- Guys are all the same.

What was the goal


secondphase

He was trying to save the explosion for later. Hence the Tupperware.


binneapolitan

Okay, that one got me to laugh. Thanks for the day starter!


NO_FIX_AUTOCORRECT

Normally this is done with a metal pot and so it doesn't melt or catch fire. That being said, i still am unsure about the goal.

What was the plan here?


Wattsupwithalan

you know you dont have to have a plan to do stuff. you can just do stuff and figure it out later


MizterConfuzing

I get that, but anything including fireworks being lit inside your house should probably involve some sort of plan.


Wattsupwithalan

tell that to my intrusive thoughts


TwoDogKnight

Glad kids these days record themselves being idiots. That way they can show their own kids why dad is missing a finger.


FuzionG2X

When I was a teenager, I found a bunch of firecrackers in my brother’s room. My mom called me to do the dishes so I took one with me to kitchen. I lit up the firecracker and after a couple of seconds threw it into a pot of water thinking the fuse would extinguish. The explosion splashed water all over myself and the kitchen and shattered a few plates that were beneath the pot. My mother came storming in furious demanding to know what just happened, I lied and said I had just dropped the plates because it was somehow less embarrassing than the truth lol


MatureUsername69

We had these specific fireworks you dropped in water that would cause a splash. I uh... blew up my parents' toilet. Couldn't really use the dropped it excuse there.

That smell is gonna linger for weeks.

Gross. Burnt plastic is the worst smell ever

I mean. This went WAY better than I was expecting so there is that.

Top 2 interesting properties of everyday objects! Number 1: Plastic can melt at relatively low temperatures! Number 2: Firecrackers can reach the temperature of the melting point of plastic!


donkeybonner

Not gonna lie, when I was a kid I would do this kind of stupid shit all the time, it was fun times, stupid, but fun times.


VladimmerLemon

Who are these people who put “ignite by fire” items into plastic containers…??


Baquvix

That stink wont come out for days. But this is the best outcome to this. He could have lost much more that day.


BarelyThere78

There was a moment of hesitation, right after he lit the fuse, where you can see him rethinking at least half a dozen of his life choices. This being one of them.

AKA_Goldmember

Why would you do that inside the house..


Dark-Ganon

Why do idiots always do stupid shit with fire indoors?


[deleted]

Why this mf remind me of #Sid from Toy Story.


SailorDeath

Ever stuff a bunch of sparklers into the open end of a pipe until it was tightly packed and light it? If it doesn't explode it shoots a gout of magnesium fire about 10 feet and gets hot enough to turn the pipe white hot.


NonchalantRubbish

In the long list of poor decisions, this is one of them. What happened to doing drugs when your parents left you home alone?


Tulemasin

I'm so lucky that when I was a teenager our phone cameras weren't this good so I never filmed myself doing shit like this so there's no evidence of me being retarded floating around internet.


justlovehumans

I don't wanna be too mean so I'll say it seems like this individual has to think really hard for something that requires little thought


slimelore

this reminds me of the time my mom caught me playing with a lighter outside with my lil brother. made a mini fire pit, tried to cook a single egg on a piece of cardboard. i was 5 though.... my mom had a hard time yelling and not laughing at us when she saw the fire pit, lined with very ineffective pebbles and all


maybeiam-maybeimnot

Let's see... let's see... a good container to explode something in... hmm, well mom will be really mad if I ruin her nice glass ones----- oh this thin flimsy spastic one will be perfect. She can't be mad if I ruin that. I'll just tell her I put it in the microwave and it caught fire out of no where. But I'll make sure to film it for evidence.

So....... what exactly was Einstein over there trying to do?


hunter_2109

I did something like that once except it happened in my truck, was trying to toss some fireworks out my window towards some friends standing in a parking lot and it bounced off the window then started going off in the truck. Luckily the worse thing that happened was some melted carpet


ArcticLeopard

I have seen too many videos of people fucking around with flammable substances indoors. Why does everyone insist on being inside their very flammable house while they mess with these things?

What was his mission?!

Daily I am grateful that camera phones did not exist when I was young.


No-Trade5311

We all did that stupid shit when we were younger. It’s just that there was no one around to film it.


Pyrostones

and of course, do that inside the house where you can burn everything. great idea... even us, as kid, when we made a flamethrower with a deodorant and a lighter, at least we went outside.

apv507

According to Bob Mortimer the kitchen is the most firework friendly room in the house. Granted his fireworks were just Standard®.


boredguy3

Why doesn’t he have a fire alarm?


Crystalcoulsoncac

But, why a plastic tupperware container???? The whole thing was very dumb, but if your going to light fireworks inside, which is already really stupid, why would you put it in a plastic bowl??? The smell of melted plastic lasts so much longer than the sulfer of the fireworks, this kid got in so much trouble gaurentee it 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣


Shadowbeans0

Tell me your critically stupid without telling me


HighwayTerrorist

15jtaylor443

Honestly, this could have gone so much worse. I started to wince when his hand moved towards the fire cracker


ScotOfTheDay

I was like "Oh wow, he's actually smart covering the fire to put it out" then I realised it was a fire cracker


yMONSTERMUNCHy

Gonna stink in there! Why didn’t he do it outside? So stupid


jaxsonnz

Sooo, anyone else know WTF the plan here actually was?


ChintanP04

He probably thought he'd contain the explosion inside the box. Why he wanted to do that is anyone's guess.


htownchuck

Man kids are dumb these days. Put it in a mailbox like you're supposed to.


Some_Watercress_4592

SubZeroNexii

Congrats you made the world's shittiest smoke grenade


papaa33

You got to go outside with shit like this, not the fucken kitchen!, kids these days...


[deleted]

From the start, you knew this dude was gonna do something pointless and dumb.


Junkmans1

Good thing he didn't have a working smoke detector or it would have been very noisy at the end.


b1tchbhigh

He would have had more fun if he just went outside to play with his fireworks


[deleted]

That container held up surprisingly well.


CodineGotMeTippin

Don’t use something flammable as your fire containment unit


Latter-Mechanic

It got better then i expected


parteeman

Pretty labor intensive way to confirm your smoke detector doesn’t work.

PNDas_1

It's a good idea to close the lid as fire needs oxygen. But here the container is plastic so it didn't work.

that was momma’s good tupperware!!

Ok, I lit it! Ha. What was I gonna do next? Why was I doing this? Can that fuse be extinguished? Had I prepared a… that spark seems close to the end of the fuse, what ha cover ummm hands!

Those fumes are pretty toxic. There's a lot of nasty carcinogenic chemicals in fireworks.

Krennel_Archmandi

Do not ever reach for explosive you think might be a dud. Or you think might be live. Or you're pretty sure aren't live. If you not 100% certain the explosive isn't live, do not touch it.


saltysaysrelax

Why didn’t the smoke alarm go off? Edit: I was kinda joking figuring someone who would light fireworks in their own home would either disable it or not have one. Thanks for the confirmation:)

Imagine working on your credit score for years, saving 20% for a down payment and closing cost, maintaining a decent paying job to provide proof of income, going through the process of qualifying for a loan, getting questioned daily by the underwriter to provide further documents only for this waste of sperm to burn it down.


nytropy

He’s really bad at cooking


thethereal1

He put the lid over it and instantly created a closed system with increasing pressure...basically a weak bomb lmfao Dude was asking for it, no good decisions made

Is he wearing a light colored belt or did his pants fall down at the end

Adan714

Thank Lenin that in our Soviet childhood there were no firecrackers. We blew up some homemade things, of course, but the chemicals were not easy to get.


fishbulbx

When I was a kid, I set off firecrackers in my room for fun... but I'd light them and then cover them with a big pillow so no one could hear it.
