accidents and serious consequences

A total of 765 police operations came across all over Austria, with the police referred to more than 9,100 pyrotechnic objects seized - almost twice as much as in the previous year. The incidents were particularly alarming in which young people experimented with self -made firecrackers. In Vorarlberg, three children got into a dangerous situation when a self-made firecracker exploded in the hands of a 14-year-old. In addition, there was injuries in Tyrol by a firecracker that was ignited on a rain bin, which was doomed to a ten -year -old brother. The situation is also heading in Carinthia, where a 35-year-old attempt to ignite a fireworks device was significantly injured.

The increased number of incidents indicated that despite security warnings, many people, especially young people, do not take the dangers of fireworks seriously. According to 5min.at, these incidents have unfortunately become a sad certificate of carelessness in dealing with pyrotechnics. In addition to these incidents, several executive officers were also injured when they hurried to help, which further illustrates the tense situation.

While the number of injured is alarming, there are also insights into human behavior that is influenced by such events. Physical gestures and your own body language play a number of roles, even in stressful situations. According to Karstennoack.de, it should be noted that certain gestures and attitudes that people take at stressful moments can often be misinterpreted by others. In such critical moments, one should be aware of the effect of one's own behavior in order to avoid misunderstandings.
