Viral Video: Diwali Daredevil Rides Firework Rocket

Festivals like Diwali are meant to spread fun and happiness, but sometimes excitement can lead to risky behaviour. This year, a boy from Delhi made headlines for a bizarre stunt during Diwali celebrations.

In a viral video, the local boy can be seen attempting to sit on a large firework rocket to “ride” it as it launched. His friends recorded the act and shared the clip online, where it quickly spread across social media platforms.

The video shows the boy sitting on the rocket while his friends light the fuse. As soon as it ignites, he jumps off just in time to avoid injury. Fortunately, he escaped without harm. Many viewers jokingly dubbed him “Diwali Rocket Man”, while others criticised the stunt as reckless and dangerous.

Experts and citizens alike have reminded people that festivals should be about joy, not risk. Stunts involving fireworks can cause severe burns, injuries, and fires. Celebrating responsibly and ensuring safety should always come before viral fame.
