>>> THOUSANDS BUY FIREWORKS FOR
4TH OF JULY.
THE FIRE DEPARTMENT
SAYS YOU MIGHT WANT TO THINK
TWICE BEFORE YOU S OFF YOUR
FIREWORKS.
NIA HARDEN SHOWS US
HOW DANGEROUS THESE THINGS CAN
BE.
>> Reporter: SOMETHING LIKE
THIS CAN CAUSE SO MUCH DAMAGE.
A
DEMONSTRATION TODAY AT THE
DETROIT FIRE DEPARTMENT.
THINGS
CAN QUICKLY TURN AS SOON AS YOU
BLINK YOUR EYE
>> Reporter: LEAVE
IT TO THE
PROS TO SHOW WHY FIREWORKS ARE
SERIOUS BUSINESS AND CAN DO THE
UNEXPECTED.
LAST YEAR, TWO
PEOPLE DIED FROM FIREWORKS IN
DETROIT.
ONE PUT IT TO HIS HEAD,
ANOTHER TO HIS CHEST.
BOTH OF
THEM IMED BID ALCOHOL.
>> YOU GET THE INFORMATION OUT
THAT WE WANT YOU TO USE THE
CENTER BACKS, MAKE SURE -- THE
INSTRUCTIONS, MAKE SURE YOU'RE
NOT USING ALCOHOL, AND THAT
YOU'RE NOT GIVING THEM TO
CHILDREN.
THIS IS A VERY, VERY
DANGEROUS ACT.
>> Reporter: THE DEPARTMENT
SAYS PEOPLE 14 GO TO A FIREWORKS
-- SHOULD GO TO A FIREWORK SHOW
TO AVOID ACCIDENTS.
IF YOU'RE
GOING TO DO IT AT HOME, KEEP AN
ADULT PRESENT AT ALL TIMES.
READ
THE INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING.
DON'T GIVE FIREWORKS OR
SPARKLERS TO LITTLE KIDS, KEEP
THE FIREWORKS AWAY FROM YOUR
HOME, AND KEEP A BUCKET OF WATER
HANDY.
>> YOU NEVER WANT TO LOOK AT
THEM OR CHECK THEM OUT IF THEY
DO NOT IGNITE.
DOUSE THEM IN
WATER.
>> Reporter: SO YOU CAN AVOID
SOMETHING LIKE THIS.
>> Reporter: I WAS CAUGHT
OFF-GUARD.
THERE WERE A LOT OF
UNEXPECTED THINGS THAT HAPPENED
AT THAT DEMONSTRATION.
THIS IS
ONE OF THE FIREWORKS THAT ARE
BEING SOLD.
AND YOU CAN SEE, IT
LOOKS LIKE IT'S SIMPLE TO USE.
BUT HONESTLY THEY JUST TOLD ME
THEY WANT TO MAKE SURE WHEN YOU
LIGHT OFF THESE FIREWORKS, YOU
HAVE AT LEAST TWO ROCKS, ONE ON
EACH SIDE TORQUE KEEP IT
STANDING STRAIGHT UP.
BECAUSE
THESE TEND TO TIP OVER!
>> I
KNOW DRINKING AND
FIREWORKS DON'T MIX.
WHAT DID
THE DEPARTMENT SAY ABOUT THA
>> Reporter: THEY
BROUGHT UP
THAT BOTH OF THOSE FATALITIES
INVOLVED ALCOHOL.
BUT EVEN WHEN
IT COMES TO PEOPLE WHO JUST MAY
HAVE BEEN AROUND THE FIREWORKS
WHO HAVE BEEN DRINKING, IT'S
JUST NOT WISE.
SO YOU REALLY
JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT EVEN
IF YOU'RE NOT THE ONE THAT'S
OPERATING THE FIREWORKS, STAY
CLEAR IF YOU HAVE BEEN USING
