My dad loved to set off fireworks, especially mortar shells, and we would always try to set them off in quick succession. He had the brilliant idea to use PVC pipe driven into the ground instead of the little tubes they came with so we could light more at one time. None of us knew enough about the physics to question him, until 8 shells went off in rapid succession and barely made it higher than the roof of the house. I miss that man.
