The US Consumer Product Safety Commission is not messing around at all when it comes to encouraging folks to stay safe this 4th of July. They went ahead and subjected dummies to some absolutely brutal, explosive demonstrations. They just want to cut down on all the mindless, excited stupidity that can pop up on the holiday. And if you look at all these and still feel like playing with fire, we'd be shocked.

Back when a kid could just walk around the woods alone all day. Back when you could give a baby a beer and a bottle rocket. Back when a child's car seat was pretty much just a mobile iron murder cage. Has parenting gotten safer and more responsible or just less fun? Little of column A, little of column B.

No matter how patriotic you are, or how much you hate Wal-Mart, DON'T try this. Three guys set off a fireworks display inside an Arizona Wal-Mart. Now the police are looking for them. Fortunately, in this case no one was hurt by this display of pyrotechnics.

WTF dude.
This video is safe for work, unless you're in a particularly stuffy office, but you may want to turn your sound down when the fireworks start.
