I know this story is from a couple of weeks back, but the lesson is still worth learning. Don't. Be. Stupid.
This one killed a person. Sheriff: Iowa Gender Reveal Party Explosion Was Stunt Gone Fatally Awry
Authorities say an Iowa family’s attempt at a gender reveal party for a soon-to-be-born baby went horribly wrong when a homemade device that was meant to discharge colored powder instead exploded like a pipe bomb, killing a 56-year-old relative.
That's going to put a damper on the festivities.
This isn't the first time this insanity has caused problems. Gender-reveal pyrotechnic sparked massive El Dorado fire.
A smoke generating pyrotechnic device used at a gender-reveal party ignited one of the 23 major fires burning in California, fire officials announced on Sunday evening.
Before it was done, The El Dorado fire burned more than 22,000 acres.
And the first link at the top references a similar issue in Arizona.
A similar incident caused a major wildfire in Arizona in 2017 , when an off-duty border patrol agent accidentally set off a blaze that burned 73 square miles.
