The fuse catches, your heart jumps, and instinct says run. That split second is where most firework injuries begin—not in the explosion, but in the rush, the stumble, and the moments when excitement outruns preparation. We unpack how holiday celebrations trigger the human states that lead to errors, and we turn that insight into a simple, repeatable plan you can trust.
Host: Danny Smith
Aerial fireworks: Determine the height that the device can shoot up plus the blast radius, which is usually 45-55' per inch. So after traveling 250' in the air, the fallout on a 2.5" would be 150' or so and then double that.
