    You got me fired! You said not to try this at home so I tried it at work instead. Destroyed a $3000 printer and it scared one of my co-workers so bad she knocked over the water cooler which ran into the office below ours. My boss was so livid he left for the day, didn't even say anything. Security stopped me when I came in the next morning and told me I was no longer allowed in the building.

Everyone was drunk, including my friend when they set it off, unknowingly upsidedown. The police arrived to find a garden full of temporarily deaf people, some with minor burns and burn holes in their clothes, and a five-foot crater in the lawn.

    What you should never ever ever do is put the shell upside down in the tube. It's definitely loud and will blow the tube to pieces. It definitely will hit your neighbors house and put burn holes in their siding. I would definitely recommend using a metal tube mounted to a base if one was so inclined to attempt to light a shell upside down, which I do not recommend at all because it is loud and spectacular(ly dangerous).

    Try putting a mortar firework upside down and leave the tube right side up then light it. Or put two mortars on top of each other and light them. I should clarify the mortars are the ones that explode in the sky with cool patterns. Try having one of those explode around you. My uncle is a moron.

    I was at a Independence Day party 1 year & a person let their daughter that was like 8 or 9 light some fireworks even after she burned a couple fingers with a sparkler & lit her sleeve on fire. The last straw was when she grabbed a mortar & lit it upside down on a cinder block. It blew the block to pieces & caused everyone there to run. People with small kids DO NOT LET THEM LIGHT FIREWORKS.... luckily no one was hurt but it could've been way worse.

    Saturn missiles have loose powder in each tube which is supposed to shoot the missiles out and when it's upside down the fuse doesn't ignite the powder. With it on its side, it is more likely to work as intended.
