You probably remember hearing about this notorious gender reveal party gone-wrong. As a refresher, it was meant to end in a small explosion with either pink or blue powder to reveal the sex of an Arizona couple’s baby. Instead, it ended in a 47,000-acre wildfire and a $220,000 fine.

The “reveal” was all captured on camera, but was used as evidence in court and not released to the public. Recently, the Arizona Daily Star obtained the video from the U.S. Forest Service through the Freedom of Information Act. People in the video have been blacked out to hide their identities.
