An amusing video has emerged of two snowmen set up to fire fireworks at one another in Connecticut, US.

The filmer described it as "an epic battle of ice and fire", saying it was the "perfect blend of awe-inspiring and humorous winter fun".

He later wrote online: "roman candles lodged in their bodies, the fireworks are lit, firing rapid bursts and demolishing both snowmen."

The video was captured in late February and the US continues to be hit by heavy snowfall across several parts of the country.
