Man 'blows up' autumn leaves in amazing viral video

What do you do when you don't feel like raking up hundreds of fall leaves?

One man decided to set them on fire.

In the video posted to Facebook by Alex Durand, it appears that some type of incendiary may have been used to burn a line of leaves at the same time.

According to Digg, burning leaves is illegal in most places and bad for the environment.

Social media users think the phenomenon looks "cool."
