Well, other sorts of batteries cause fires too, and even explode.
This danger is not unique to LiPos.

As for this explosion, I don't think it's the battery. It looks more
like fireworks put into the plane to make it explode. (But maybe
that's your point?)

Difinitely a firework. With dead planks to play with, I used to use just a
splash of fuel and a match.

It can, but it can also be any number of other things too.

as lipo battery is danger,

ALL batteries can be dangerous, but that can be sais of just about anything.
Fuel in bottles can ignite if they come onto contact with a lit welding
torch for example. Carbon fibre rotor blades can cut fongers off if they're
spining fast enough.
