Is it dangerous to put Kong Ming lanterns in the city?

In my personal opinion, I think it is dangerous for two reasons: first, most Chinese believe that there will be a disaster where the Kong Ming lantern falls, so it will cause panic among the masses. Second, if the place where he landed was on the road, it would lead to disasters and car accidents. I remember that two years ago, a Kong Ming lantern fell 100 meters away from my house, and at that time, a car suddenly braked urgently in order to avoid it!

The car behind will also go with the flow...

I think it's dangerous. When I was more than eight years old, I started to go to school in other places, and every year in my rural hometown, there would be adults who used white paper to paste Kong Ming lanterns in the night with engine oil to dip cotton into them, and used the heat to release Kong Ming lanterns, often the lamps flew in the sky while dropping the burning cotton balls, and then a group of children in the village chased Kong Ming lanterns in the fields under the moonlight at night and often ran out of several miles, just for the lantern to be released may fall halfway down and can be picked up and continued to fly. At that time, almost every household in the countryside had a firewood stack, and if the fire or Kong Ming lantern fell on it, it would cause a fire.

Now I think about the kind of thing that happened back then chasing the lights in the field in the dark days is still quite scary, because my hometown is the Great Plains area, and there are many deep wells for irrigation in the fields, and the children are looking up at the direction of the lights and chasing them all over the field. I don't even realize the existence of a well at that time. It's scary to think about!

I think it's very dangerous, if its fire touches the power line or other flammable materials, it can easily cause a disaster. Because it's always drifting in the wind, you don't know where it will fly after you release it, or don't let it go.

Yes It can be dangerous if it falls in the grass.

It is generally the custom of the Mid-Autumn Festival to put Kong Ming lanterns. The Mid-Autumn Festival is a traditional cultural festival popular in many ethnic groups and countries in the Chinese character cultural circle, which occurs on the 15th day of the eighth month of the lunar calendar; Because it coincides with the middle of the third autumn, hence the name, and some places set the Mid-Autumn Festival on August 16. On May 20, 2006, the Mid-Autumn Festival was included in the first batch of national intangible cultural heritage lists.

Personally, I think that the danger of putting Kong Ming lanterns in the city is quite great. First of all, there are high-rise buildings in the city, and if Kong Ming lanterns fly into the homes of high-rise people, it will damage other people's property at least and ignite combustibles and cause fires. In addition, if the fire falls in the air and burns people, the harm is very great; Finally, everyone must abide by the rules and do not put Kong Ming lanterns at will.

The places in China that allow the display of Kong Ming lanterns are Fujian, Zhejiang, Yunnan, Guangdong, Jiangsu and Taiwan. Hainan Kong Ming lantern is also known as Wen lantern, sky lantern, it is made of white knot square paper, is based on the principle of hot air balloon, the heat generated by the air heating expansion is lifted into the air, the fuel it carries can be lifted into the air and float for about 1 hour, at the beginning like an unidentified flying body, after rising to a certain height, it is like a star.

The origin of the Kong Ming lanternLegend has it that when the five dynasties were from 907 to 960 AD, there was a Xin Qi Niang, when she was fighting with her husband in Fujian, she used to tie bamboo strips into a square frame, paste paper, make a headlamp, and place burning pine resin on the chassis, and the lamp flew into the sky by hot air as a military liaison signal. This kind of pine resin lamp is called Kong Ming lamp in Sichuan. The shape of this lantern resembles the hat worn by Zhuge Liang, hence the name.

Another theory is that it is said to have been invented by Zhuge Liang during the Three Kingdoms.

When the Kong Ming lantern fell, the orange socks were digging, the fuel had not been completely burned out, and there were other things such as buildings or power lines next to it, which was easy to cause disasters. The structure of the Kong Ming lantern can be divided into two parts, the main body is mostly made of bamboo strips or iron wire, with cotton paper or paper paste into the lampshade, the fuel combustion of the Kong Ming lantern makes the air temperature in the lamp rise, and the specific gravity of the good Wang decreases, so the buoyancy rises, due to the influence of uncontrollable factors such as wind speed, it becomes a flowing fire after flying, and there is a serious fire hazard.

Once the line is burned during take-off, the fire will fall into flammable materials or forests, causing a fire. Try not to use too much burning material, and try to let the Kong Ming lantern burn for a while before it will go out automatically.

The lampshade material of the Kong Ming lantern is generally paper, which is easy to ignite, especially the Kong Ming lantern purchased, which is almost all of them, and if it is ignited, it will be dangerous, so if you want to put the Kong Ming lantern to make a wish, it is still a Kong Ming lantern made of non-flammable materials, and the material that can be flame retardant is better.

Historical origins

This kind of pine resin lamp is called Kong Ming lamp in Sichuan. This lantern is shaped like Zhuge Liang.

Wear a hat, hence the name.

Another theory is that it is said to have been invented by Zhuge Liang during the Three Kingdoms. Zhuge Liang was Sima Yi back then.

Siege in Pingyang, the whole army was helpless, Zhuge Liang came up with a clever plan, calculated the direction of the wind, ordered people to bring thousands of blank papers, paste into countless lanterns, and then use the gravitational pull of the smoke to take them into the air, one by one small lanterns rose, and the soldiers in the camp shouted: "Mr. Zhuge sits on the sky lantern."

Break through the book wide! ”。Sima Yi actually believed it and led his troops to chase in the direction of the sky lantern, and Zhuge Liang was able to escape. Therefore, later generations called this kind of lantern "Kong Ming lantern".

Modern people put Kong Ming lanterns mostly for blessings. Men, women and children write their blessings by hand, symbolizing a successful harvest and happiness every year.
