A man paid with his life after he sat on a powerful firecracker during a betting challenge with friends on Diwali night in Bengaluru. A video of the incident has gone viral on social media. Sabarish, 32, was under the influence when he agreed to take up the challenge from his friends. Local reports said all of them had drinks before they came out to burst firecrackers. The bet was that whoever could sit on a cardboard box under which a powerful firecracker would be planted would get a new autorickshaw. Reports said the shockwave from the explosion damaged his internal organs. The police are looking into the matter.
