Who among us didn't experiment with stupid pyrotechnics in childhood. There but for the grace of God go I. Wishing them a speedy recovery.

This reminds me it's probably time to talk to my kid about not setting things on fire in the house

High-school memories of extracting gunpower from bullets and making pipe-bombs. I also experimented with electronic detonators. Fun stuff and blossomed a life-long interest in chemistry. But yea really dangerous.
