Filmed in Dazhou, southern China, the surveillance footage from outside a family's home captured a woman and her family immersed in the festive atmosphere of the Lunar New Year. Upon hearing firecrackers, she turned to look, only to be unexpectedly hit in the eye by a flying firework known as a "crawling monkey."

The woman stated that her niece's child was the one who lit the crawling monkey firework. Worried that the firecracker might harm the child, she turned to check. However, as she turned, the firework shot directly towards her, hitting her in the eye. She expressed that the pain was intense at the time, but fortunately, apart from a minor injury to her eyelid, there were no major consequences.

The video was filmed on Feb 13 and provided with permission from local media.
