  • An interesting documentary about how the team at Howard & Sons Pyrotechnics go about producing a pyromusical display.
    The documentary follows the entire creative design, manufacturing, installation and the presentation of this truly amazing pyromusical display that features a live music performance by Australian band eMDee floating on stage as the fireworks display erupts around them in perfect syncronisation to their unique didgeridoo tones and high energy drum beats.

    Holy Shit. I'm glad I watched a 40 minute video about a fireworks workshop so I could see a fucking drum n didgeridoo heavy metal firegasm. That's way more avant-garde than I expected. It was hard & intense. It would have been amazing to see that in person. I'm not surprised they placed in the soundtrack category as well. Good shit here.

    A cilinder shell going up and breaking like a ball shell with the smalleest charge ever

    Brilliant show,award's well deserved fella's and girl's. I would'nt like to even guess how much a big display cost's let alone the work load that goes into setting one up then setting one off.

    15:35 - those "secret" ingredients loox like an iron oxide (rust) and magnesium flitters :P :D

    • @LTUPyro
      @LTUPyro Před 10 lety +4

      I'm pretty sure it's red gum and magnesium

    • @boratsagdiyev5679
      @boratsagdiyev5679 Před 4 lety

      Could be both but iron(III) oxide makes more sense since he uses like a kilogram of dextrin so a second binder would be kind of an overkill

    • @boratsagdiyev5679
      @boratsagdiyev5679 Před 4 lety

      Oh and there were either magnesium, magnalium or aluminum shavings/flakes also added last

    • @MeanLaQueefa
      @MeanLaQueefa Před 3 lety

      Copper oxide makes blue. It’s no secret. Here in the 🇺🇸 we have pyro clubs where they build them. Also books, internet will show you, people want to spread knowledge for their passion not hide it

    @GeoffBernard Před 10 lety +4

    20:25 I hope the missing fingers on the left hand are from some household accident and NOT a result of a firework mishap. ;)

    It's funny he mentions the airports explosive test failing. I have flown to several rocket launches and know I had residue on my stuff. The test has failed on me too

    • @boratsagdiyev5679
      @boratsagdiyev5679 Před 4 lety

      Yeah but I guess they're not gonna search for simple stuff like potassium nitrate and so on, only strong explosives

    The "Discount" rental truck appears. All fireworks display professionals use a rental truck. Seen the world over at every fireworks performance! If something goes wrong, why blow up your own truck?

      Also and more importantly: When you don't need them 27 days a month, why own one for just the three?
