Horrifying moment truck full of fireworks EXPLODES firing rockets into crowd sparking stampede

THIS is the horrifying moment a truck full of fireworks EXPLODED, firing rockets into a Bonfire Night crowd.

The flying sparks caused a stampede at Ringwood Raceway in Dorset on Saturday night when spectators got too much bang for their buck.

The explosion was set off when a hot end from a firework landed in the tipper truck, according to The Metro.

It took three minutes before marshalls at the event were able to get the sparks under control.

As the explosion finished an announcer was heard telling the crowd: : “That was not quite scheduled to happen.”

He then joked: “Did you enjoy that? You aren’t going to see that anywhere else.”

One spectator, Aaron Orchard, 22, from Hampshire, said the event, attended by hundreds of people was a “complete shambles”.

He said: “The van just exploded and chucked up like mushroom clouds and everybody just started running.

“It just turned into carnage, people were hurting each other trying to get out the way.

“There were hundreds of cars parked about 30 metres from where it happened so fireworks were hitting cars and everyone was running away from the fence.

“The whole thing was a complete shambles. I’ve never heard of anything like it. It was crazy.”

There were no reports of injuries and Dorset fire Service said by the time they attended the scene at 9.23pm, the fire had already been extinguished.

The Sun has approached Ringwood Raceway for comment.
