There's been a number of firework factory explosions in China over the years and they absolutely can be as devastating as you see in these videos
 
Frightening and so sad for those affected by this.

There was one in Holland a few years ago.

Fireworks should be illegal outside of professional displays and regulated far more stringently.

They are literally bombs.

You still need factories in which they are manufactured.

Incredible footage. Captured just seconds after the initial small blast and extremely close to the site.

Indeed you do. There are explosive factories in the UK and they're miles from anywhere built up.
 
Bloody hell!!! There was a cloud after that last blast that just vapourised up into the air!!

The aftermath looks like as if a nuclear bomb went off!!!!
