Aside from the igniter being placed in the middle of an end cap, the cannon being constructed from DWV and an 8 year old firing a cannon without direct adult supervision; the cannon is fired at, what you'd expect to be, the most mature person in the video.
While it's great seeing what is presumably a father having a good time with his children, an opportunity for teaching responsible behaviour has certainly been lost...

Read the rule. Being in the video is not the rule violation. Discussing that second target and posting a video of the forbidden target is the violation.
Personally, I think it's a great safety video. Learn from other's mistakes.

I even posted a copy of the rule.
Good question for PCGUY, (pm sent) give him a day or two for the reply....
I'm with jrrdw, not sure I would associate myself and all of NZ with this fellow. They probably saw something similar "on the internet" and may have figured it was the way things were done.
It's sad to watch even mature people who obviously haven't grown up in a gun culture break just about every rule of shooting in less than a 2 minute period.

The opportunity for teaching them swear words was however used admirably.
