yes! that second one was the right one, but the first one wasnt it, the ones im talking about were just two balls that you threw in the air and made one hit the other and made a spark, and gave a fantastic smell of firecrackers, and they had flint or something in them that made a spark when you banged them together.

Hah yeah I remember they had that sulphur smell to them like a match head. They used to put them in those clapper noisemaker things so they would make sparks too.
