The eve of Hari Raya would be incomplete without the sound of fireworks sparkling in the night sky that can be heard from miles away
Actually, during any Malaysian festive season, fireworks are a must have. Whether you've seen them right in front of your doorstep or from several neighbourhoods away, despite how noisy they are, you have to admit they're pretty cool.
There are so many different kinds of fireworks and firecrackers, and they come in different shapes and sizes too.
There's even one shaped like a mini army tank, and it is so. damn. cute.
In a TikTok posted by @bangkuli91, the little firecracker looked like a toy at first glance. After lighting the fuse, the firecracker was put on the floor and moved a little bit before smoking, and then 'fired' sparks from its muzzle.
The video has since garnered over 3.2 million views and 264,000 likes.
Malaysians fawned over the little firecracker, and reminisced the times they used to play with it in their childhood days
The little tank was irresistible to Malaysians, most of which found it adorable and even asked where to buy it in time for Hari Raya.
Apparently, the firecracker is not new to the scene
Users remember playing with the little tank as far back as 40 years ago, along with other kinds of 'legendary' firecrackers that are popular among locals.
"This firecracker has been around for awhile, [I] used to play with it as a child," one user commented.
Another user commented, "This has been around since 40 years ago. It's the same as frog firecrackers, fly firecrackers, chicken firecrackers, and the like."
