It is sad.
Sometimes, as a family member, you need to step in and say this isn't a good idea. Or maybe say you really don't need that 12th beer today, maybe you should switch to water.
Or someone might have said only those who have not been drinking are in charge of the fireworks.
I feel sad. But sometimes it hurts to do stupid things.
If you are going to play with fireworks, don't drink. If you are going to drink, don't play with fireworks, guns, cars, and a whole host of other things that don't mix well with alcohol.
Maybe someone will read this and pause next time they face a similar circumstance.

I feel awful for the family inc brother present who see the down side of social media picking up on this one.
I have known some brilliant folks in college combined with booze doing these types of things(eg pouring gasoline directly out of can trying to start smoldering fire) but thankfully survived.
