On this short page I will tell you and also show of what happened to my hand on New year eve while playing with some "harmless" fireworks. I had my hand severe burned while holding a few sparklers tightly in my hand, I just held them this way for convenience and wanted to ignite them one after another by pulling one by one out a few centimetres while a cigarette lighter is in another hand, you probably know how long it takes to ignite the sparkler? some times a minute just enough for the lighter to start to melt and also you know that sparkler is slow burning? yes but not in that particular time. The pulled out sparkler and all of the remaining pack just exploded at once as soon as a flame from the lighter touched the tip of the sparkler... The result is reflected on the pictures that I took personally while in the hospital, the pain is terrible... And more important I am out for at least four weeks, (thankfully I have people working with me so still capable to carry on) this means that all my planned projects are on hold now. and here is word of caution for all the hobbyists who are planning and hoping to use their holidays to fulfil their plans and finish or conduct their projects. please take care of yourself and do not let the negligence to take its toll; the sparkler may still explode in my hand but only one , not the whole pack if I would've been more cautious about what I was doing, I may still be burned a little and without the consequences of serious burns that required constant medical attention and literally ruined one month of my life. Please be careful.
So one month had passed by and as you can see I am well again, doctor said that I am very lucky and the maximum that I will get is some minor skin pigmentation, thus I was through a cruel lesson that my life gave me, so you can learn from my mistakes and avoid them. Look after yourself and be safe.
