Woman sets off firecracker that falls toward beach crowd

During the San Juan celebrations in Barcelona, a woman on a crowded beach releases a lit firecracker. The firework initially shoots upward into the night sky before gravity takes hold and it descends directly toward a nearby group of seated people.

The clip captures the sudden shift from casual observation to rapid self-preservation as the group scrambles across the sand to escape the falling device. It travels well because it highlights a common summer mishap that turns a festive moment into a tense, split-second reaction.
