Jason Pierre-Paul’s Firework injury (NSFW)

I just published a blog on the epidemiology of fireworks injuries. But, let’s take a bit more granular to see what one of these injuries looks like.

Ten years ago today, July 4, 2015, New York Giants defensive end Jason Pierre-Paul was setting off fireworks in his neighborhood. One seemed to be a dud, so he went over to inspect it more closely.

And bang.

If you want to see what this type of injury can be, by all means, click on this link. Yes, it’s gruesome. Sometimes it’s necessary to confront the consequences of actions to enable change.
