The Fourth of July is a great reason to blow stuff up.  And the guy in the video below came up with a whole new way to do just that when he strapped some fireworks to one of those big, styrofoam airplanes!

Thinking that the added firepower would really propel his plane into the stratosphere, he rigged up the explosives with precision.  However, it didn't appear to go as planned, because just seconds after liftoff, the fireworks exploded at a pretty low altitude.

The video cuts off quickly, but we can just assume that his neighbor was thrilled with the close-up personal fireworks display!
