I don't think it was an accident, it seemed planned to me.

These are the guys who released these. They apparently like fireworks.

The fire is caused by some kind of firework. Looks like some kind of repeating roman candle etc to me lol.

Obviously the video is a complete fake.

Yes, you can see the base of the firework sticking out of the front panel. Fun to watch, though!
