YouTube user captures spectacular accidental fireworks display

Video has emerged of a dazzling fireworks display in Italy – which occurred completely by accident. 

The footage, which is believed to have been filmed in July, shows hundreds of fireworks exploding in the air and on the ground after a massive fireworks cache exploded.

"[Most Italian fireworks are] shot the traditional way, meaning no electrical fuse ... every pyrotechnical article has to be lit manually," Reddit user Bartjay said.

"Accordingly, u [sic] will have a lot of open fuses, which are prone to go off if there is a flop."

It is not known if there were any injuries, but a thick wall of what appears to be vines separates spectators from the explosions, likely shielding any of them from serious harm.
