Human Firecracker 14

Human Firecracker 14

John Fletcher, 51, is helped to his feet by his nephew Alan Marshall, 21, right, after he collapsed at the end of his performance. Fletcher performed for the last time as Ghengis John the Human Firecracker during the Conestoga Bike Fest in Coopersville, Michigan on Saturday, June 28th. Fletcher’s firecracker suit had more than 10,500 firecrackers and he was hoping to set a Guinness World Record for most firecrackers ever ignited while strapped to a person’s body. “It’s like being strapped into a lightning bolt.” Fletcher said.
