Butt of the joke: Australian man suffers severe burns to his bottom and genitalia after firework party trick backfires

Firecracker: The man placed the rocket between his cheeks and lit the fuse
An Australian man has been hospitalised with severe burns after placing a firework between his buttocks in a party trick gone awry.
The 23-year-old man was attending a party in a suburb to Darwin in the Northern Territory on Saturday, when he decided to brighten up the evening.
The stunt, quite literally, backfired and the man was taken to local hospital with severe burns to his back, cheeks and genitalia. Police said alcohol was ’a possible factor’.
‘It appears a party was in full progress when a young male decided to place a firework between the cheeks of his bottom and light it,’ Senior Sergeant Garry Smith with Northern Territory Police said.
‘What must of seemed to be a great idea at the time has backfired, resulting in the male receiving quite severe and painful burns to his cheeks, back and private bits.’
When police arrived at the party in the suburb, ironically named Rapid Creek, the man was writhing in pain but was able to get to hospital without the aid of paramedics.
AND HES FROM DARWIN!

What about that guy who put a firework up his anus and lit it

By backward the wrighter might have meant rural and not exposed to modern manufacturing processes.
They did invent paper, money and porcelain and many many other things though , too many to list .

Not nice to say, but it could be a china forgery artificially aged

They are more interested in something that sells well as it produces a nice profit for them - they are not interested what happens to the coins , if they are passed on as genuine etc

Ah that must be where marley bob gets her many many 1933 pennies along with the barely believable stories
-
All fakes like these coins being talked about on here turned the American market to slabbing ,I really hope it does not have the same effect here.....

By the way some of the coins mostly the gold and the bronze penny , halfpenny and farthing are in such good grade they are really stunning they must have been bought by a really serious collector.
It must have been a wrench to sell them

Frank may gave up the job in 1893 so its pretty certain that box does not belong with the 1902 set as their is 15 years difference in date , its more certain that this box had a 1887 0r 1893 set inside IMHO.
By the way I would imagine that box and set of rare coins would fetch £700 or so in that grade (Around £20 to £25 a coin) am I guessing right ?
It certainly is not one for a collector on a budget I bet the reverend rogers would have loved it
-
The box has p. may as the cashier so it should be easy to go back through the old B.O.E. cashiers and work out if its in the 1911 period
Simples really

The one exception can be that rare variety you find after years of looking and just buy on impulse - you tend to only look carefully when you get home...

And here's their reply:
What happened:
We looked into your report and didn’t find the listing to be in violation of our policy. This determination was made using automation or artificial intelligence.So that's alright then.
Or artificial non intelligence

It's the future Edward VII in case you were wondering...
from the look of his age it dates to 1845 or so
