We’ve all met that dude at the bar who can do tricks with their body that make you wonder how they’re still alive. Whether that’s opening a bottle with their teeth, or “double-jointed” moves that look more like a bone breaking than a physical feat, these weirdos will amaze and disgust with all of the strange things they can do with their corporeal selves.


On that note, watch this man swallow a firecracker.



How did he discover he could do this? Who knows, but my guess is that beer that’s on the table has something to do with it.


No matter how he learned it, it’s a pretty impressive skill, made all the better by the wholly cartoon-like aftermath of him blowing smoke out of his mouth and nostrils.




I couldn’t find any reliable information about what happens to the human body after one swallows a firecracker (all the experts just say “don’t do it,” those nerds). However, I think it’s safe to assume that, if you want to keep living, you should probably keep the firecrackers in the driveway.
