Allen Ray McGrew, 41, was found laying in the road. He put a firework on his head, and it exploded while on his head, causing massive head injuries, officials said.

His wife, Paige McGrew, said her husband had been drinking since 6 p.m.

See, Florida? It’s not just you. Americans get drunk and do insanely stupid shit everywhere else in the country too.

    Surgical tech here. July 4th is always a busy night on call.

    Sometimes we can reattach hands/fingers. Sometimes we have to cut back until we get to tissue that isn’t char-broiled, and just sew it shut.

    Our flesh doesn’t do super great against explosions. Please don’t fuck around with them.
