Here is a link to pictures of the Chinese Lantern Festival. Several are pictures of guys throwing molten metal against a cold stone wall. Looks cool and dangerous. |

If you heat up a flint from a lighter and throw it at a wall, you get a similar effect...just a bit smaller (and safer) scale |

Not sure if "cool" is the proper adjective, but those were very interesting. Also I got this abstract when my browser choked temporarily trying to load th first image ...

Safety does not seem to be a priority. How about image 17 of the shirtless guy everyone is supposed to throw firecrackers at for good luck? |

I forwarded the link to the folks at The Crucible -- maybe they'll have a class on it soon ... BTW: I doubt that this constitutes a "budget" alternative to traditional fireworks. |

Taking photos at an event Like this would be awesome. Anytime you have to come up with protective clothing to do something you just know it has to be fun. |
