I took my best looking shoes and put 4 high explosiv firecrackers into the soles. For that i cut out a hole in the soles where the firecrackers fits perfectly in. I connected the four firecrackers with a ignition cable and stepped many steps away and ignited the firecrackers with a electric detonator. Cause of the detonation the shoes flew far away and there was a huge fireball around the shoes. It´s better to ignite these kinds of firecrackers with a electric detonator then with a ignitor cord.
