Fireworks have to be the best part about the Fourth of July. There’s just something about loading up on M-80s and bottle rockets that makes you feel like a kid again. Unfortunately for these poor bastards, the whole explosives thing can go so incredibly wrong, it’ll make you think twice before launching that Roman candle out of your ass, this year.

This video is as much a chemistry lesson as it is something you’ll actually enjoy. But don’t worry, the premise is simple: This dude cooks up some nitroglycerin and blows stuff up with it. That’s basically it. Now, how long do you think before the CIA shows up at his door and ships him off to Syria for a little “enhanced interrogation”?

When you live in a city, all types of opportunities open up to you that aren’t available in small towns and rural communities. Tons of different jobs, different people, different girls and different experiences are right at your finger tips. But the one thing you miss out on is blowing sh*t up. And after seeing this video, that just might be a game-changer.
