Magnesium Fail.

Looks like after effects / particle effects to me, cropping together 2 clips. Less than 2% chance of that being real IMPO.

There's no disputing that, the light magically turns on after the blast. I would have put in the OP but I don't think I would have laughed like I did if I knew it was fake right off the bat. There's the light and the fact the sound clip for the blast sounded too good to be taken from a camcorder in a house.

Oh boy, that reminds me far too much of myself between the ages of 11 - 16...... My mom is still pissed about the smokebomb in the kitchen....

Agreed. That was my first thought as well (being a fake), and watching it a few times afterwards to critique it for realism didn't change my opinion, but DANG that was still funny.

You know it's fake by the fact that the shirt he was wearing before the explosion is blue with a graphic, and after is solid black.

Still funny though -
