Sure, it's not the 4th of July. But, blowing up a bunch of fireworks never gets old. Unless it's your neighbor doing it at 2am and it isn't July.
Sadly, in some states like Illinois, all we can do is light sparklers while the professionals get to blow up all the cool ones. And in this video, the professionals are the ATF.
According to the YouTube poster:
MPD's bomb squad recently assisted the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives with the disposal of approximately 20,000 pounds of seized fireworks over the course of three and a half days in Glasscock County. Odessa, Lubbock, and Amarillo's bomb squads were also there to assist. The fireworks were seized through a large case worked by the ATF. The opportunity and training received on this disposal was incredibly helpful for our local bomb technicians.
Sucks that they all got confiscated, but at least they filmed it!
Can someone teach them how to hold the phone sideways? #VerticalVideoSyndrome
