Here's A Bunch Of Mannequins Being Blown Up By Fireworks For Your 4th Of July

This is what America is all about.

The officials want you to remember that it's very important to be safe around fireworks so that you don't end up with a bottle rocket in the eye like this bro.

And don't handle M-80s or cherry bombs unless you want to end up like poor Uncle Fred here.

Don't even think about trying to make your own fireworks at home.

And don't stick your face over a firework like this dumb-dumb.

Happy 4th, America!
