This article deals with some noise aspects resulting from firecracker explosions, which were measured during New Year's Eve. Apart from principal factors influencing the acoustic power of such an explosion, some new statistical aspects are described. A special emphasis is given to the probability distribution function of peak sound pressure levels, originating from a great number of firecracker explosions.
