Wow, that is terrible. Of course I could picture injuries/burns with close prox but not being fatal. Humbling reminder.

Sad. Goes to show how dangerous our hobby is.

To be honest I'm always leary of any gerb or fountain that reaches that height. I've seen them explode with the same or more energy as a ground salute.

I'll tell you one thing...that's the last time I use metal gerb holders.
