Surveillance cam in China filmed a kid holding sparklers right over the vent of a manhole cover, which is a terrible idea because the sewer was filled with methane.
When the sparks came in contact with the methane the manhole EXPLODED, sending the cover and some of the sidewalk into the air. Fortunately, the kid ran away just in time and nobody was hurt.
