Those days, banger was one of the reasons I look forward to the new year eve cos it always promises to be fun. There use to be a challenge between my compound and the next compound. The compound who succeeds in chasing members of the other compound inside with bangers wins. It used to be fun, great fun. But now no more!!! *sobs
Are you sure we aint neighbours? *sobbing too

After cross-over night mass(catholic church service) in the church premises, one of bangers they threw entered my turnover trouser(Christmas cloth) and i never noticed till it blew off!

It was horrible! destroyed my trouser and i was also wounded......

On Christmas eve, my neighbour's daughter got hit by the fireworks stuff, her entire body got peeled off that year, cos she's just a toddler. I felt sorry for the family. I have no personal experience though.

My worst experience was the first dat I ever lit a knock out. That day, a close friend of mine gave me stick of knock out. A single round. Don't forget that a single round has the most powerful bang. So I decided to light it. As soon as I lit it I threw it on the floor and the next thing I saw was smoke and that was all. I had no idea that was the way it works and that a single round takes more time before going off. So I went towards the knockout and picked the stick up. The next thing I heard was BOOOOM.... Followed by nweeeeeeee..... That was all I could hear. The knockout gave me injuries all over, even nose bleed. Men... After that day, even to hold d tin to sound dey fear me. If I light d tin throway... Shikena

We call them crickets here....they used to terrorize us with them a lot, my mother never allowed us to have them @ home.

But just last Christmas my niece and his buddies had some fun, my drunk cousin helped them ignite one they call Volcano

We thought the thing hadn't caught fire when he held it in his hand, the explosion had me running inside the house, the next thing he said was "Damn I blew my fingers off!"

He ran away, got caught by the security guard @ the gate, the thumb, the index finger and the middle fingers were hanging on some pieces of skin. We rushed him to the hospital, he had to have surgery the following day. Now he has 3fingers left on one hand.

Things got banned from the whole family....worst year end of my life

about 9years, my uncle sent me to get him cigarette. So, I bought it and put it in the same pocket I put the banger.
Unfortunately, I gave him the banger instead of the cigarette. He was so drunk that he didn't even notice the difference. Booom it went. The alcohol cleared from his eyes immediately. Then he was rushed to the hospital

Well as a young Einstein, I've always been prone to creativity and fueled by a love for research; What if this? What if that?

Soooo it's no shocker that I would carry this love of research into the realm of childish play, knockouts inclusive:

Time and Date: A summer evening, 6:30p.m, Year 2002.

Location: Lagos, Nigeria.

Premise: Our group of eager scientist set out to create the first indigenous rocket made right in our very backyard. We indeed would be able to boast of being the first Nigerians to send a rat of similar smaller creature to space, pending of course, the outcome of the test flight of our unmanned vessel.

Materials and Infrastructure:

This would serve as the propellant for our unmanned craft, with each firecracker disembarking back to earth upon complete combustion



Our choice of materials for our unmanned vessel narrowed down to your tried and truested milo can.









Outcome:

Oh, I hate those things with passion!! It was on New Year's Eve, I was around 5 years old. We were all in the sitting room and my mum was holding my 1 year old sis. I can't really explain what happened apart from seeing a flare come in through the opened louvre and my mum trying to shake something off her laps. Alas, she was too late as the silly stuff exploded and made a very ugly gash just behind my sis' right ear angry angry
I've never held any knockout in my life

I was highly skilled with the one round banger and was the C O of the knockout squad for two Xmas in my neighbourhood many years ago. My bad experience was when an older neighbour put a banger into my shorts and it exploded inside my pockets burning my thighs, my folks banned me from such activities after the incident.

MrTeymee:
Oh I threw a lotta banger back then. I used to pride myself in holding it self. I coud hold 6sound back then a major feat lool. We used to light 6sounds and put it in a bottle sef. New year morning, we and d house opposite always did banger fight. Used to be mad fun men.....
My worst experience would be when I and a friend wanted to do what we used to call 'Kissing' back then. It simply entails lighting a banger from an already lit banger instead of using matches. We used to do it like every time. On that fateful day, his was lit and I was trying to light mine as usual. Unfortunately, mine refused to light up. We kept trying hopin twas gonna light and before you know it, his already lit banger exploded. His fingers busted that day omo see blood. As for me, I couldn't hear well for the next 2weeks. Twas like d angels in heaven were singing in my ears for dat 2weeks. D sound was more like 'OoooooOo'.....lool
funny and crazy

I remember when I nearly blew off my blockos with banger. This particular night boys in the neighborhood gathered as usual, doing their thing, after enough forming, i threw a banger stick (d very fat and loud type) boom! Louder than the rest, yeah! my head just dey swell, not all boys can afford that type of banger. I threw another one and we braced ourselves for the bang, then nothing, after about 3 seconds still no bang, so i just pick up the banger stick put it right inside my hip pocket, i was preparing to ignite another one and all of a sudden, boom! To cut long story short, I wore wrapper on Xmas day with a bandage between my upper thigh n my blockos.

Francon:
I love those tiny green sticks they call 16 rounds (those ones held with a rope)

Way back in school, during the burn fire night, it was all fun till the day someone threw in banger from a school fence and it blew on my leg. The pains and agony made me stop it.

I had a sad one when I threw one into my neighbour's compound and on d day he caught me, he lit different knockouts and place them all around me to know how it feels

I now hate it with passion. Though I buy them for kids around me to have fun with.
Best punishment ever. smiley
