Locals fled as fireballs from a botched homemade rocket launch flew everywhere during a Thai festival.

Footage shows participants lighting up the DIY explosive at a field in Kalasin province, Thailand.

However, the stand holding the blasters collapsed shortly after ignition.

Flaming debris hurtled in all directions while panicked festivalgoers hid behind trenches.

Dilok Tamjaipuan said: 'They exploded before they even reached the sky. It was scary.'

The event was part of a competition being held for the Kut Wa Rocket Festival on May 18.

No one was hurt and the festivities continued afterwards.
