John Fletcher of Pinckney, 50, aka Ghengis John the Human Firecracker, starts to get lit up by 6000 firecrackers strapped to a leather vest outside Burroughs Tavern in Brighton, MI on Oct 26, 2012. It took just 3 seconds for them all to go off and John wasn't wearing any protection over his face, ears, eyes or head. (Mark Bialek / Special to the Det News)
