How would you feel if you watched a video of a firework only to realise after you brought it that the video contained TWO of the same firework fired together.

I'd probably first contact trading standards, as it's definitely false advertising.

I don't know why companies do it, there is the well known one that has been featured in threads on this site that has shells going off as well. It is just conning the public (and the trade buyer if you are buying purely on a video). As with all things like this, vote with your wallet this tends to have the greatest effect.

Pisses me off when a company uses a Cat 4 Cake to advertise a fairly poor Consumer cat 3 cake.....
