In a vigilante moment a year or two back I set out to scare the sh*te out of some local yoof/scrotes who were shooting fireworks at passers by from the dark of the park behind my house.
Remembering I had a stash of bangers left over from a firework show I had worked on, I took 3 LARGE bangers and an empty bean can stealthily to the bottom of the garden.
I placed the tin soundlessly on the top of the wall just above where the herberts the sat and with a lighter in one hand and the bangers in the other I mentally talked myself thru what I was going to do.
'Light bangers, drop bangers into can, run back to the house and laugh myself witless'
I lit the bangers, turned and BANG! the bangers(which were old and unstable)went off in my hand.
Deaf in one ear, I ran back into the house, up to the bathroom and ran my hand under the cold tap for about 1/2 an hour. Funnily enough tho, the fireworks in the park magically stopped.
