Why Are You Here?

Hey! What are you doing here? It's Memorial Day. We're all chillaxin' poolside and barbecuing, which is really what you should be doing, too. But since you're already here you might as well waste a few more minutes of this beautiful day watching a few idiots almost blow themselves up...

Hey! What are you doing here? It's Memorial Day. We're all chillaxin' poolside and barbecuing, which is really what you should be doing, too. But since you're already here you might as well waste a few more minutes of this beautiful day watching a few idiots almost blow themselves up trying to barbecue. Whatever you do, DON'T TRY THESE AT HOME.

Don't worry, this guy survived.

This guy has skills. He didn't even drop his phone!

People on fire. Is it ever not funny?

And a lesson on why you juggling kebobs might not be such a good idea.

Have a nice Memorial Day! Don't forget to pour some out for the homies.
