Canada. Canada banned firecrackers on 27 September 1972, after two children were killed and three others severely burned when some older children threw some firecrackers inside their tent.

The world’s longest Christmas cracker measured 63.1 m (207 ft) long and 4 m (13 ft) in diameter and was made by the parents of children at Ley Hill School and Pre-School, Chesham, Buckinghamshire, UK on 20 December 2001.

Taste Test: The Best Crackers

• All-Occasion. Milton’s Everything Multi-Grain Crackers. Inspired by the “everything” bagel, these crackers are big — in size and flavor.
• Cheese-Plate Companion. Triscuit Cracked Pepper & Olive Oil Crackers.
• Big Dipper. Sensible Portions Pita Bites, Black Olive Feta.

Crackling noise in the firecrackers comes from lead oxide, which turns into lead atoms as the firecrackers explode. These lead atoms vaporize and the vapours make the crackling sound.

The noise level of an average firecracker reaches 130 decibels at five or six yards.

The largest legal consumer firecracker is now limited to 50 milligrams, or 1 percent as much powder as an M-80’s. It worked.

A quarter stick is a large firecracker that falls within a certain range of dimensions. In the United States, quarter sticks and similar large firecrackers are illegal to manufacture or possess without an ATF High Explosives Manufacturing License. They are sometimes colloquially known as M-1000s or “block busters”.

One major tell: They’re not loud enough, hard as that is to believe. A military M-80, “You’re looking at above 150-decibel range level. I think 140 decibels is permanent hearing damage,” Wejsa said. “If this thing goes off and you’re not ready for it, you might have to change your shorts.”

Wolf Pack® firecrackers

Triangular Firecracker that’s louder than an M80: whatisthisthing. r/whatisthisthing.

Agreed. There is no way a binary explosive like Tannerite is going to be set off by a Black Cat or similar firecracker.

Each individual component is not explosive on its own and even when mixed, Tannerite is still very stable. It will only detonate when struck by something with a velocity of at least 2000 feet per second. It won’t detonate if dropped or struck by something going slower than 2000 feet per second, no matter how heavy.

Tannerite® brand targets are meant to be stored in a dry, room temperature location (and can last about 10 years!), but if it is kept in a hot or humid location, or any moisture gets to the bottles, the nitrates degrade and cause the pellets to fuse together.
