Nearly set neighbours house on fire !! beware of chinese kites

[RakaKaKaka]

So i bough a pack of chinese kites after i saw them in some movie. Thought to try them. It said on instructions not to fly if wind more than 5 mph. It was breezey today. I lit it and waited for it to go up, din do much. then it rose a bit and i also helped it gain momentum. It was that moment it flew down to the neighbors 2nd floor balcony where they have clothes drying etc. I ran to hide incase something catches fire, heard a few screams as the ball of fire is quite big. Thankfully nothing happened and noone knew what it was. Dunno if it flew away or someone put it out as i had come down. crazy day ![DOUBLEPOST=1470247815][/DOUBLEPOST]

1 chinese lantern is nothing.
You should see the craziness on 14th January in big Gujarat cities. The entire sky is littered with lacs of these things and they inevitably float down and cause small fires all over.

Sure looks pretty though...
