What you mean, we all know Ricky would be the guy to go. “Hey toss me that thing of super glue or hey pass me that role of sandwich baggies and the sharpie, but my fingers in the beer cooler next to Geoff
Trust me, ER nurses have a 4th of july bingo card that has a few squares for blown off fingers. Extreme sunburn and alcohol poisoning are also on that card.
PSA for anybody who does get a finger removed: This should maximize your window of opportunity for getting it reattached. 1. Find the finger. Hopefully, it's still intact. 2. Get two small plastic bags. 3. Put the finger in one bag. 4. In the other bag, put ice and a bit of water. 5. Put the finger bag into the ice bag. You want to keep it cold, but not freezing.
@@mindassassinAnd that’s why when the boss man wants you to work on the 4th, things happen… My bad, we forgot the baggie. No, Roscoe didn’t bring his dogs to work today. At least I don’t think he did…
I was in the ER with my mother last 4th (unrelated to the holiday), and there were at least 5 people in there holding their blown up hands in the air, rapped in gauze.
Happy 4th of July to you and yours!! You are so right about the fireworks, love 'em, safety and common sense!! Love Y'all!! God Bless America!!!🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Sometimes I find it hard getting out of bed. But I watch your videos and I get just enough happiness to actually get up. Thank you for making your videos, please don’t ever stop!
I grew up in the 70s and 80s .. all those warnings are there because of my generation.. try to not blow off or severely injure anything you'll miss .. seriously .. otherwise have fun and try to be safe! Enjoy your Journey Beautiful Souls!!
Boss , HAPPY 4TH , But I think you won't get Ricky on the job site, under double overtime, not double time, 1) it's a national holiday . 2) it's hot 3) he got 14 baby mama's to deal with . 4) most important , beers cheap for the 4th....unless it's holding a manual solely down on the dirt ,that boy ain't gonna function correctly. 5) I seen him at the fireworks tent and he damn near bought them out , so if he s working the 4th so are the fire departments...😂 Have a fun and , ( Safe) ??? 4th of July on the job site .....😎👍
As a jeweler.....this is the same speech I have to give to wives who want their husband to wear an "indestructible" wedding ring, i.e. the alternative metals like titanium, cobalt chrome, damascus, etc, whilst at work so they don't have to take their wedding ring off. Cool. He's gonna A) lose the finger, 2) that finger will be de-gloved, III. he gets electrocuted because something arced. Just don't wear your jewelry at work, the gym, camping/floating, etc. Wear it for date night, family gatherings, getting groceries, things like that. Oh, & never wear your gold jewelry anywhere near a pool/hot tub/the beach, because prolonged chlorine or salt water exposure leaches alloys out of the gold making it porous & brittle, which is NOT reparable. Thanks for coming to my TEDTalk.
I'll say this, im a professional Gunsmith and I have absolutely ZERO trouble believing how many stupid people we have in our society today. Common sense is truly uncommon now.
I searched firework injuries statistics and I got :In 2022, U.S hospital emergency rooms treated an estimated 10,200 people for fireworks related injuries; Over half of those injuries were to the extremities (29% hands and fingers, 19% legs, 5% arms) and 35% were to the eyes or other parts of the head. 10,200 - 59% = 4,182 which is hands and fingers
Not a problem because we learned young in our family. Mom was a nurse and the last thing she was going to do was go to the hospital on her day off. So anything we blew off stayed off. Blow up the truck? That's what insurance is for. Blow up your hand? That's why you have two.
14 years ago, my wife's uncle lost the use of his hand and the tips of 2 fingers.He was pouring out the gunpowder from a homemade and m-80 Onto the freshly Set off tank While smoking and sober I might add when the gunpowder ignited blowing Up in his hand in front of 3 children. Thankfully, the one was autistic and did not know what was going on. The one was his daughter and the other was my wife's cousin's son. I believe they were 5 and 9 at the time. They were both very much traumatized by it. He almost died. 2 of his fingers were jammed into his hand by the explosion. He can no longer do what he did for a living.As he was a photomauti , bodguy working on crashed cars
Hey, my husband is a former combat engineer (he set land mines and c-4 explosives), and a couple of years ago, he and my Vietnam vet Marine Dad couldn't get a big fountain firework to go off, so what do these trained geniuses do? They gathered around it, with torch lighters! Lol
I always run from fireworks that are launched from tubes. My family always laughed at me because I've done that since i was 12. On July 4th 2019, one of the fireworks only popped up 3 feet and exploded. I got hit in the shoulder, but was able to shrug it off because i always put a lot of distance between the fireworks and myself. Family hasn't questioned me since.
Right On!!! Last year we were at my friends house. His neighbor had some illegals (fireworks not the people). He took 3 of the motors that go way up in the air and make huge explosions. He tapped the 3 together and twisted the fuses together on top. Lit them and ran. Only 2 of them went off. He decided to go check on the third one and picked it up. Now he doesn’t have a hand. It literally blew his hand off to where it was just wrist, veins, meat and so much blood. In a shock induced panic he actually asked us to help look for his hand. There was no hand to be found.
I gotta ask, were they in the tubes? I've lit those mortars outside of tubes before and they didn't explode quite like they do when they're in the tube. Guessing it's a pressure thing.
According to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission, last year 9,700 people were treated in emergency rooms across the nation and eight people died from fireworks-related accidents. Here's a breakdown of last year's injuries: 19% suffered eye injuries. 22% suffered injuries to the face, head and ears.
Typing in "how many fingers were lost on the 4th of july" returned mixed results. 9700 people were injured July 4th, 2023, but it doesn't specify fingers. This is from USA Today, the most trusted name in journalism.
Was expecting Ricky to walk in screaming in pain demanding to go to the ER
😂😂😂😂
For sure
😂😂😂
What you mean, we all know Ricky would be the guy to go. “Hey toss me that thing of super glue or hey pass me that role of sandwich baggies and the sharpie, but my fingers in the beer cooler next to Geoff
Fuck that would have been fun ASF 😂😂 i can see it in my head 🤣🤣
Trust me, ER nurses have a 4th of july bingo card that has a few squares for blown off fingers. Extreme sunburn and alcohol poisoning are also on that card.
Only two of those are work related, and not the two you think.
They usually have a separate card for managers who expect their employees to work on the 4th. “He put 6 mortar shells where and lit them?”
Only amateurs lose fingers. Pros lose the entire hand.
😂😂😂
'merica
Suicide Bomber : Amateurs !
Go for it bet you won’t
Naaaahhhh a hand 😂what about the arm
From a combat Veteran... HAPPY 4TH BRO... HAVE A GOOD ONE ...

Thank u for your service!!sir!!yes!!sir!!🇱🇷🇱🇷🇱🇷🇱🇷🇱🇷🇱🇷🇱🇷🇱🇷🇱🇷🇱🇷🇱🇷🇱🇷🇱🇷🇱🇷🇱🇷🇱🇷🇱🇷🇱🇷🇱🇷🇱🇷
Can Ricky give his PSA too lol
PSA for anybody who does get a finger removed: This should maximize your window of opportunity for getting it reattached.
1. Find the finger. Hopefully, it's still intact.
2. Get two small plastic bags.
3. Put the finger in one bag.
4. In the other bag, put ice and a bit of water.
5. Put the finger bag into the ice bag.
You want to keep it cold, but not freezing.
Step 6: Take the finger with you to the emergency room.
@@Sman7290 If you need that one written down for you, then you don't deserve to get it reattached.
If you're stupid enough to lose a finger you're probably stupid enough to need point 6 written down.
@@mindassassinAnd that’s why when the boss man wants you to work on the 4th, things happen… My bad, we forgot the baggie. No, Roscoe didn’t bring his dogs to work today. At least I don’t think he did…
Back at you Brother and thanks for all the great posts! Lots of fun!
I gotta work in a kitchen on the 4th. I'm playing "America, Fuck yeah" every chance I get on the speakers
Got a buddy tlwho celebrates the 4th every year by watching team america...
I was in the ER with my mother last 4th (unrelated to the holiday), and there were at least 5 people in there holding their blown up hands in the air, rapped in gauze.
Happy 4th of July to you and yours!! You are so right about the fireworks, love 'em, safety and common sense!! Love Y'all!! God Bless America!!!🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Common sense isn't as common as you think. 😂

You are just awesome brother thank you for all the laughs and everything else
Great video great knowledge.📡🇺🇸👽😂😂😂
I’ve been close to losing my whole hand 😮
SUCCESS!! All finger and Toes present and accounted for. Ha ha
Well we already know Ricky's calling in sick on Friday so hopefully his fingers will all be intact by then as well 😂🤣😂
I can count the number of people that have lost finger due to fireworks on one hand.
Salute young man
Have a great Fourth of July and stay safe , from a Canadian fan 🇨🇦
Never worry! I lose my fingers on the 3rd!
Double time baby!!!!!
Happy 4th of July
May we All be safe. AMEN!!!
Same to you. Happy 4th of July. I won’t be losing any fingers as I refuse to burn my money. I will watch others burn theirs
Great advice !
Well aren't we setting the bar high today 😂😂😂
Happy 4th of July to you and " the fellas " from canada ....Ricky and Roscoe are already ahead... better catch up 😂
Great advice, make sure you keep an eye on Ricky
God Bless!
Boss , HAPPY 4TH ,
But I think you won't get Ricky on the job site, under double overtime, not double time, 1) it's a national holiday . 2) it's hot
3) he got 14 baby mama's to deal with .
4) most important , beers cheap for the 4th....unless it's holding a manual solely down on the dirt ,that boy ain't gonna function correctly.
5) I seen him at the fireworks tent and he damn near bought them out , so if he s working the 4th so are the fire departments...😂
Have a fun and , ( Safe) ??? 4th of July on the job site .....😎👍
You, Ricky and the gang stay away from the crazies!
One of my favorite holidays to!!!!
Happy 4th everyone! Mercia! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅
You and Ricky have a great holiday

let Ricky Roscoe and the safety man know I still got all my fingers 🤣🤣🤣💥
I blame the finger loss on the Chinese!!😂😂😂😂😂😂
I'll say this, im a professional Gunsmith and I have absolutely ZERO trouble believing how many stupid people we have in our society today.
Common sense is truly uncommon now.
Amen, brother, Amen
Great message
Alcohol and Fireworks mix about as much as stupidity and fireworks
Happy 4th
This is good advice for every day. "Go to sleep with as many fingers as you woke up with"
Back at ya, bud, Happy Independence Day!!
Good Advice!!!!
Happy 4th to you and your family too
Happy 4th, keep rocking brother!!!!!😎👍

BULL SHIT I WENT TO BED WITH 9 1/2 and woke up with 9 1.5/3 😂😂😂
A finger or four is a small price to pay for FREEDOM!!!
God bless America 🇺🇸 happy 4th to all real Americans ...TRUMP 2024 2025
Thank you happy 4th
I spend a lot on the fourth, which is my Christmas in the summer God Bless the U.S.A and Trump !!!
Excellent psa. Thx :)
That feeling when you have to work on 4th of July, but still end up losing a finger
Stuck at work !!! No double time
Google says that firework injuries make up 57% of injuries that happened 32 minutes ago (posted @ 12:31 a.m.)
❤ America!@❤😊
Thank you
Yep. I got a cousin that blew off the tip of his pointer finger back in the 80s.😂
That one person who loses their fingers for non firework related reasons "aw crap"
I had Black Cat pop in between my fingers before, when I was a kid... Those suckers light fast. Glad I still have my fingers today.

I appreciate that reminder 😅
Peace Man👍🙏🇺🇸
HAPPY 4TH RICKY🎉🎉🎉🎉
Got the double time baby!!!!
And there are those that don't wake up.
I'll be getting my double time plus picking up the weekend!
Hey, my husband is a former combat engineer (he set land mines and c-4 explosives), and a couple of years ago, he and my Vietnam vet Marine Dad couldn't get a big fountain firework to go off, so what do these trained geniuses do? They gathered around it, with torch lighters! Lol

If you do lose one, I'm gonna nickname you Nubbs.😂
At least use your off-hand. ✊️ 🎉 FYI, Christmas day has the most.... Ricky should give us a PSA for that 😊
We love you bro happy yet back bro have a great night and blessed 4th thank u for the happy4thness
My brother in-law blew off his thumb a few years ago. Sooo I sent him your video... 😂 👍👍

@@Incognito1786Right On!!! They were supposed to be in tubes. They were round balls with a fuse and duct tape.
As one of the nine finger frodos, it was shockingly easy to pop off a digit. Learn from my poor choices.
In 2022 it was 10,200.... considering the usa has roughly 400 million people id say thats not bad....
Happy for July May 🤠🤠🤠🤠
NEVER UNDERESTIMATE THE POWER OF GUNPOWDER, ALCOHOL & PEER PRESSURE..

I just posted that on my work chat too!!!!!hahahahahahaha
Lol I'm smart, I let other people blow their fingers off for the 4th of july and I just enjoy the fireworks shows
Happy 4th Brother 🎇
Beer and fireworks go together like peanut butter and jelly.
Natural selection

Happy 4th amigo!
The 4th is like Darwin Award day...
So about 15,600 people are sent to the hospital due to the fourth but it doesn’t say exactly how many fingers are lost.
