Not a big eye for details, eh?

The second the sparks go down the small holes, it starts an explosive reaction. You can see the sparks from the sparkler get shot right up back up and if you listen carefully you'll hear a hiss. The kid reacts to the quick buildup of pressure, not the explosion itself. Once the pressure gets high enough, there's an explosion.

You believe that some kid was just randomly discarding a lit sparkler in a hole, just because?

You don't think someone put the kid up to it?

Is that your assessment???

He started running a bit to early...

To early for what, to make a good viral scene at the cost of the kids life? Please explain what the kid was too early for.

Considering I set fire to an electrical store and blew the fuses on an entire mall as a 5 year old "just because" I wanted to turn on some electric porch heaters, sure! lmao do you think kids are just small adults?

You don't think someone put the kid up to it?

If the desired outcome was an explosion, you have to explain what sort of gang roam around and measure methane concentrations, and what type of kids they make go set it on fire. Are they random kids? Kidnapped and forced into the methane removal industry?

Let's just start by you explaining who made the kid do it and why.

Is that your assessment???

Yes!!!

You seem to know quite a bit about the facts of this situation, given your "eye for details".
So, I suppose we'll have to agree to disagree.

No doubt, you've already submitted this knee-slapper to "Funniest Home Videos", so you can watch it with all of your friends. Good luck with that big prize money.

You've earned it.

I combine what I see with what I know, and considering we now agree to disagree, it's already in the cards that I believe I know more about the situation than you. Unless you're ready to debate my arguments I'm just going to assume you have no counter arguments.

Dreaming up what somebody else does and then presenting it as laughable is like shitting your own pants and saying "Imagine the other guy doing THAT!"
