Paying to watch a professional fireworks display, only to discover that it didn’t really warrant the entrance fee, is a scenario that some of us will have inevitably encountered this month. <br /> <br />Fear not, though, because this video showcases the most impressive fireworks seen all year – and the best part is they were a total mistake. <br /> <br />The clip shows the accidental explosion of a stockpile of fireworks in Italy and, as you’d expect, it’s an incredible sight. <br /> <br />Thousands of fireworks are seen to illuminate the sky, as spectators run to observe the unexpected display from a safe distance. <br /> <br />It is not thought that the spectators came to any harm during the incident, which is thought to have occurred in July, as the explosion seems to be occurring behind a wall of thick vines acting as a shield. <br /> <br />Although it is not entirely clear what caused the explosion, a Reddit user has speculated that it may be because Italian fireworks ‘are shot the traditional way’. <br /> <br />‘They have no electrical fuse… every pyrotechnical article has to be lit manually,’ they said. <br /> <br />‘Accordingly, you will have a lot of open fuses, which are prone to go off if there is a flop.’
