Video: I’m not going to call these guys total idiots because if I had access to big fireworks, an empty street and a camera, there’s a non-zero chance that I too would light those fireworks up, blast my friend in an awesomely stupid fireworks fight and record the whole damn thing so that other people could call me an idiot. This wild, Harry Potter-like fight filled with colourful explosions happened in China during Chinese New Year.
It seems just slightly dangerous as the street fills with smoke, the fireworks are still shooting and you don’t know where anyone is — but at the end of it all, the guys run away laughing at their own idiocy. Do not try this at home, kids.
