Video: ‘Angry’ cyclist shoots fireworks at scooter rider from homemade contraption on bike

Fake?

Never mind - haven't laughed so much for ages!

@Element2k3...like we really needed that explaination???

Did this on my car many many years ago when I was a stupid gadget freak teenager. Had length of steel tubing under front bumper with bit of insulated wire wool a set length down it which was wired to a switch on my dash board from the battery. Insert rocket in tube, flip switch, wire wool goes red like a cigarette lighter and ignites fuse. Only used on mates cars (no damage done) on deserted roads. Quite funny at the time and surprisingly accurate but horrendous now. Was really annoying to have to stop and get out to reload though.

I think the only thing real is that they inadvertently started a brush fire at the end.

Please tell me folk weren't taking that seriously....

I want one of those, but there needs to be a better system for lighting the fireworks.

Before you publish an article, make sure that people really get what you are trying to say.

Dafne Fixed is quiet famous within the fixed community in Italy - the guy that fires the firework, is sponsored by Cinelli actually. Anyway, I would give everybody the advice to check the youtube channel and maybe you will understand the big mistake he did by publishing such an article. HINT: they are all friends and they are just acting like if he was angry at the guys on the scooter.

Hmmm, I would suggest that these are much more accurate and indeed will make a bit of a mess of the intended target. http://www.baesystems.com/en-us/product/apkws-laser-guided-rocket

No good if you're on a bit of a budget though, ex USSR military should still be able to make a big splash and there's a shit ton of it about at bargain basement prices, failing that a drone with a blow pipe and poison tipped darts would be acceptable 

Probably just a few friends havin a laff

Fake news. So fake. So so fake.

If only this were real...
