timrs2001 It's illegal actually. Depending on where you live, there are laws preventing flight near fireworks and around crowds. Try and you will set the bar very very low very for all drone fliers. It only takes one accident to paint a broad brush for everyone.
ken masters I'm honestly a little surprised the authority having jurisdiction over such things has had time and effort to create such a law, but I'm now extremely interested to know the details - can you cite it?
Amazing footage!!! As a drone pilot myself, my thoughts went toward safety as alotta folks did. From what I saw, the fireworks were launched from unmanned barges, in the middle of a body of water. Thus, had the bird gone down, it was a very slim chance anyone would have gotten hurt. Yes, he risked his bird, but I'm guessing he knew that :-) My hats off to the pilot for enjoying life in the moment, and sharing it with us all :-)
Having shot fireworks before, I can tell you we wear hard hats. Lots of stuff goes up against the wind and comes back down with the wind, right where we are. So we’re ready for sun 250g drones. Please don’t do this with heavier ones, they would hurt...
It depends…. If they are just launching mortar after mortar I wouldn’t want to fly thru some shit like that but Something like this I’d risk it for the biskit to get that shot . $1300 and even more , 2,3,4 ..7 to 10 grand for the thermal drones. I’d HATE to loose my drone because it got knocked out the sky because I was flying over fireworks…..
This footage is just amazing. Literally makes you see the beauty in things from a wholly different perspective. I literally had no idea what I was looking at at 3:37 and thought it was looking to the sky. I know that's impossible but, it was not until the camera panned to the buildings that I realized I was looking down. Such is testament to the beauty of what you managed to capture. On a side note, another excellent choice of music you could've used was the song "Whole New World" from the disney aladdin movie.
My jaw was dropped this entire video for two reasons. First is to the amazing shots you collected. Secondly, the fact that you'd fly your drone into fireworks. But truly a spectacular video.
Just beautiful. so classy work of art in every respect . Your choice of song and in to the unreal fireworks are so moving, brought tears to my eyes..... It's comforting to know there are still people like you walking this earth. Beyond belief that some have given it the thumbs down !!! I don't care,, for every thump down there are millions thumbs up to take their place. Well done to you.
You're lucky you didn't lose multiple hundreds of dollars worth of equipment... But the results are spectacular! This is by far the best view of a fireworks display I've ever experienced. Thank you!
I agree it's very cool, but that thing seriously could have crashed straight into a barge or into a crowd. This is the sort of thing that the FAA is going to point to when they want to start restricting the sale/use of drones for personal use.
And now... this is the camera angle we will expect to see of any fireworks display that is televised. What is my life, when i was younger we were bitching about sodding tamogochii's, now its flying through actual decorative explosions like a video game!
***** yeah along my years of travelling through internet ive learned to spot fakes or atleast be suspicious when needed but theres none of that here lelelele
***** Here's a little thought experiment for you: imagine the volume of each firework being fired into the air in aggregate. This is in total about the size of a small truck. Now, in your head, compare the volume of a small truck to the entire airspace over West Palm Beach. And maybe you'll begin to see that it's actually very unlikely that the drone would ever get hit.
Prague, by a small ravine from which they launch the fireworks ;) It looks nice but the explosions are so loud it shakes the glass in the windowframes :D
Utterly amazing. This is what it must be like flying through a meteor storm. Reminds me very much of some of the imagery from Brainstorm at the climax of the film.
The drone probably costs less than a single rocket. The fireworks company should hire a dozen drone pilots and add that to the choreography, or add drone command to the computer systems controlling the rockets. Then live stream it to IMAX theaters or planetariums.
This has been my favorite fireworks video for years now, since the first time I saw it... hands down, no contest, K.O.'d all others & continues to do so! Something about both the spectacular images together with Bocelli's voice - it’s magic. And then when it reverses???!! That was the shit!! Over the years, I’ve shared this link with so many friends. I’ve lost count of the number of times I’ve shared it. So... sending this long overdue and very heartfelt THANK YOU for sharing this little piece of magic that I've enjoyed many times over the years! Hope you keep making magic.
If you watch any #fourthofjuly videos, this is the one. Remarkable footage and it's surprising that the guy's drone didn't get lost as he's flying it alarmingly close to some of these explosions.
Exactly what I've been waiting to see since drones were invented! Oh, I've seen the others but yours is the best. I could watch that for hours. Just one thing -- if you recorded the shells bursting, would it be possible to let us hear *that* version? I mean, I love Italian opera singers as much as the next guy -- but I'd REALLY rather hear those incredible explosions! (Please, all those who agree, make your voices known.) AND thanks so much for the visuals - - never have seen anything li
HERMOSÍSIMO!!!! Nunca antes había visto una experiencia de fuegos artificiales en video con este nivel de realidad. Ojalá que aquí en Chile, se comiencen a utilizar drones para transmitir el tradicional Año Nuevo en el Mar (Valparaíso-Viña del Mar- Reñaca y Concón); sería impresionante :D
Not even joking reading the comments below is like seeing a small child complaining something to his teacher gosh... This video is awesome and also the fireworks is far from where people are watching it and if the fireworks did hit the drone it wouldn't fly to someone like let's be real here people sounds so damn stupid in the comments....
You obviously have not concept of how powerful show grade fireworks are. They are military grade projectiles with pre-mature fuses that make you go ooooooo ahhhh. They are set up by professionals for a reason. If by some off chance that drone got nailed and fell onto the barge and knocked over one of the mortars. It can launch a shell into the crowed, since you are on youtub look up professional fire work disasters.
The music is beautiful and so appropriate. Anyone who doesn't like it can certainly mute their speakers. Thank you, this is lovely. Brought tears to my eyes watching and listening to this. Well done.
For those of you who think this is illegal: arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2014/03/faa-cant-regulate-small-rc-aircraft-as-drones-judge-rules/ (also: it's not a drone, it's an RC copter, something that's been flying for at least 30 years now)
To bad that song is playing now it can not be monetized. Shooting fireworks myself I am not sure what my opinion on this is. I noticed on my last fireworks display someone was using a green laser on the smoke from the shells in the air. I felt this was like someone was adding a streak of paint to my art project in the sky without my permission. If the audience saw this drone, it would distract from the fireworks display. I am surprised none of the shells hit it. I have to admit I did enjoy the video, but I did not like the music. I would have enjoyed it more if the boom was heard. The problem will come when more than one person decides to do this at a fireworks display. On my TH-cam videos I like to capture ground zero footage of fireworks finales my self. It is fun to see what it would like to be in the danger zone without really being there.
An octogenarian with a punk rock-style mohawk dude for an avatar... on TH-cam. Interesting. Anyways, if you truly do get trauma (PTSD) by viewing fireworks, why did you click on this video?
+Aminul Islam Sajib .Fireworks don't technically explode, I can't remember or be bothered to look up the word for what they actually do, de-something or over. An explosion is classed as a shockwave moving ahead of the blast, i.e. faster than sound. Fireworks don't do this so the drone probably wasn't in any great danger, maybe a direct hit to the camera as the firework released its payload may have damaged the camera, but the mechanics of the drone were never in danger.
Enjoy what? I just checked that song and it's so awful and unfitting. So thank you but no, I preffer to listen to one of the master pieces of Andrea Bocelli than that ''thing''.
Fireworks from a truly interesting and beautiful perspective. However, I can see how such use of drones could cause concern and even controversy. It's a double edged sword. On one hand, we have a beautifully artistic visual result and on the other there is the safety factor that you simply cannot ignore. Looks like some regulations may be in order.
Here's the thing for me - while the drone is in plenty of danger, that's the owner's choice. I doubt the launch zone is inhabited, and even if it is the risk of a falling drone that's been shot down seems roughly on par with the risk of the other falling hot debris from the fireworks - so what _new_ safety risk has been introduced by the presence of a drone? I don't object to justified regulations that mitigate some irresponsible risk - but I don't see anything in this scenario that calls for such regulations. No new danger to the public, no safety risk beyond whatever already existed by setting off controlled explosions over a populated area.
Personal drones are not illegal and to be quite honest, they aren't that expensive. Gotta remember, these aren't the type of drones that the military uses, they are more like remote controlled airplanes of yesteryear with a lot better range and a lot better control. If anyone is worried about personal privacy issues, trust me, there are cheaper and easier ways to keep an eye on you without the use of a personal drone.
HMMMMM enough gun powder to blow a city and you still have time to worry about the little drone over the water? the military and news, brainwashing, is why people have a problem with "drones", lol not hobbiest like myself who film as well..

Over 4 years later, I still come back to this video because I love the videography and music! Very well done!

This is the video that has set the standard for all of us with drones to try and reach. Amazing work.

ken masters For drones or aircraft? The line gets blurry there
amazing stuff. perhaps the best drone video i have ever seen.
Συμφωνώ :3
Always come to watch this every year around the 4th of July. It's the best, thank you so, do much.
this is a perfect example of what quad-copters and drones can be used for. How often do you see something so up close and wonderful? this is pure art

Pretty dangerous
@@nes.torfernandez Flying a drone at any point is pretty dangerous.

Drone pilot ? Calm down. You bought a drone and used it. That's it. Get over yourself
wow! absolutely unbelievable that your quad didn't take any damage... bravo!!! five stars all the way :)
It's funny with the couple in the beginning, smiling politely at the nerd with his toy. Little did they know how fantastic the footage would be.
This footage is just amazing. Literally makes you see the beauty in things from a wholly different perspective.

Years later, I am still saying this is stunning.
Hands down the best video of 2014.
Oh my stars! This video and song never gets old!!!
As a fireworks enthusiast, this might be the coolest thing I've ever seen!
My jaw was dropped this entire video for two reasons. First is to the amazing shots you collected. Secondly, the fact that you'd fly your drone into fireworks. But truly a spectacular video.
Best view of Fireworks! Thank you for sharing your perspective!
This is just so amazing, I saved this many years ago but still watch it every once in a while.
It's the fuckin' Catalina Wine Mixer!
Step brothers hahaha
POWPOW
freakin*
boi shutup he can say what he wants
Boats and hoes
Most wonderful thing I've seen in a while.
This is so beautiful
omg im from itay i and i now this song becuse im italian
I think this is one of the best things I have ever seen on youtube, since 2006!
THIS WAS VERY COOL!! ITS ABOUT TIME WE HAVE A NEW USE OF DRONE TECH..VERY NICE!!!
This flight and the beauty it captured is everything 💜 Thank you.
Absolutely amazing. Thank you for sharing. I've never seen anything quite like this. Beautiful!
This is how I hope that our loved one we have lost view the fireworks. This is by far the best firework drone video and always has been. Great job.
I mean it's already cool but a 360 camera would bring it to another level.
or a 3d camera can you imagine
or a 3d 360 camera :P
Or a 3D 360 4K camera :PPPPP
or a 3d 360 4K Ultra OLED camera ;>
Or
a 3d lightfield® 360 16K SlowMo VR DX357544R8 ... pro of course
Just beautiful. so classy work of art in every respect . Your choice of song and in to the unreal fireworks are so moving, brought tears to my eyes.....
It's comforting to know there are still people like you walking this earth.
Beyond belief that some have given it the thumbs down !!! I don't care,, for every thump down there are millions thumbs up to take their place. Well done to you.
Perhaps the coolest thing I've ever seen! 😮
I never thought seeing fireworks from up will be this beautiful 😍
Never get tired of watching this!
I love living in the future.
***** your brain and your parents love is not real
Davie Leyba BURN!
AzureRathalos Torterratrainer No, not really... It was a shitty comeback that was way out of context
***** actually time is real
It must sound fucking fantastic living in the future the present is good as well.
You're lucky you didn't lose multiple hundreds of dollars worth of equipment... But the results are spectacular! This is by far the best view of a fireworks display I've ever experienced. Thank you!
Hey, as long as it's someone else's budget, I'm happy to watch the results! :)
I agree it's very cool, but that thing seriously could have crashed straight into a barge or into a crowd. This is the sort of thing that the FAA is going to point to when they want to start restricting the sale/use of drones for personal use.
lol they would probably make that money with the views on this video anyway :p
Dallas Carney It was above water. It might have hit someone in a boat but that's more unlikely than flying it over a large crowd on land.
best I ever seen!
Thanks for sharing this and amazing song choice.
Wow, great idea and wondeful pictures.
This feeling of flying through sparks of light made me very happy.
I decided to watch this again.... Truly one of the most beautiful displays I've ever seen
Awesome point of view, perfect job for a multi rotor! Pretty awesome video editing as well!
I just keep thinking of Stepbrothers with this song
Duhh
hahahahahahahahahahahaha
Walter White ahh ur contact photo is amazing
" pound those fucking drums Dale! '
boats n hoes
And now... this is the camera angle we will expect to see of any fireworks display that is televised.
What is my life, when i was younger we were bitching about sodding tamogochii's, now its flying through actual decorative explosions like a video game!
WOW!! That is truly amazing perspective!!!!!!!
Immediately thought of the movie Step Brothers when I first heard the music lol. This is really amazing stuff though.
So much yes.
Catalina Wine Mixer!
***** It's that f****** Catalina Wine Mixer. haha
am I the only one who was expecting a firework to direct hit the drone?
***** Fake.. :''DD oh man, dunno if trollin
***** well its not fake lol
***** yeah along my years of travelling through internet ive learned to spot fakes or atleast be suspicious when needed but theres none of that here lelelele

***** it starts with an h and ends in r. can you guess the word? also ''umou'' in between. get reeeekt
I live on 16th floor, this is what I see every New Year ;)
Where is this located ?
Prague, by a small ravine from which they launch the fireworks ;) It looks nice but the explosions are so loud it shakes the glass in the windowframes :D
TeaSpoon Are you sure it isn't at St john's at OPorto? 'Cause seems very familiar to me :)
Susana Machado I am talking about the proximity to fireworks the drone camera achieves ;)
TeaSpoon
Ohhh makes sense... My bad, sorry :)
Proof that fireworks are 3D. Take that, flat-fireworkers
I swear you are in every yoitube comment section ever
This guy LITTERLY risking his drone to look at this. BUT IT LOOLS AMAZING THOUGH
Literally? English is hard...
Ocean Forest not everybody has English as his native language my dude
@@TimsWildlife yeah, I live in the Netherlands. Sorry I am a 12 year old🤷♀️
優雅で良いですねぇ。それになかなか見る事が出来ない視点なのも良い
Art is truly a blast!
Thank you for the front row seat to a spectacular event!
the only acceptable video of fireworks to this day
Of course!.Fly a drone through it! Very cool.
Awesome !!
I saw a drone flying over the fireworks in beacon. Cool.
IT'S THE FUCKING CATALINA WINE MIXER.
boats and hoes!
Utterly amazing. This is what it must be like flying through a meteor storm. Reminds me very much of some of the imagery from Brainstorm at the climax of the film.
got to watch this on 1080 P, full screen. Great job.
This song is " Con Te Partiro " sung by " Andrea Bocelli "
No, it's boats and hoes
Drek Anon this makes me so sad, bocelli will never see fireworks
NYRangersfan63 lol
There was also another one with Sarah Brightman called "Time to Say Goodbye".
time to say goodbye is just the English version...she sang it with him. :)
It must be interesting for the drone to only be observing rockets this time instead of firing them at people.
Men I just love you reply!
I would really like to see a quadcopter like this one fire anything, let alone rockets...
ಠ_ಠ
Make love, no war. Film it.
Billy Harkey Then upload to Pornhub.
I dont listen to this type of music... EVER... but for some reason it spoke to me. The video and music together gives me hope for better days.
Awesome footage! Thanks for sharing.
Awesome footage is an understatement. It's a good thing the drone did not get "shot" down by a firecracker.
I sometimes forget that fireworks aren't 2 dimensional
Yes
I always think they are like 20 times bigger than what they actually are
I enjoyed this video once I turned the volume down..
pretty ballsy to fly through that :)
beautiful editing and aerial film.
The drone probably costs less than a single rocket. The fireworks company should hire a dozen drone pilots and add that to the choreography, or add drone command to the computer systems controlling the rockets. Then live stream it to IMAX theaters or planetariums.
Now, here we got a man with an idea...
Run with that idea man. It's a good one.
Klaus Lungwitz Yea, stupid idea
Ya that would be tight!
drones are actually pretty expensive. the nice ones anyway. nice ones are $600 to $1000+ ... like this drone was well over $1000
The f--ken catalina wine mixer!
Joey Beans I THOUGHT THE SAME THING XD
You legend BOATS AND HOES
And the music by Andre Bocelli "Con Te Partro" (Time to Say Goodbye is so great...)
Thank you! I was looking for that info!!
can't not think of "time to say goodbye" by twenty one pilots tho
This has been my favorite fireworks video for years now, since the first time I saw it... hands down, no contest, K.O.'d all others & continues to do so!

It was my fault we didn't get to see fireworks last night so I hope this is a good consolation prize for my wife ;)

I'm surprised it wasn't hit by one of the explosions, knocking it out of the sky. Gladly it wasn't, but I'm still impressed that survived.
I'm not sure about this specific model of quad-copter, but some can keep operational even after being shot with buckshot.

BOOM... Found out.............. HAHAHA!!
Dude you've gotta be like 90 by now and that is if you joined in 1941 at 16 years old, probably a troll.
When Andrea Bocelli sings this song, I'm sure he imagines this very video
I would say that is a great use of "Time to Say Goodbye"! WOW! Chills!!!!
You know Andrea Bocelli's blind, right? No offence.
Andrea is Blind that is correct, but I'm sure he has a very vivid imagination.
Or will farrell singing it lol
***** hahahaha
superb not only for the spectacular drone footage but attaching Boccelli's amazing voice to it! Well done!
Very cool!
taking heavy flak fire
I'm surprised he wasn't worried that one of those fireworks could actually hit the drone mid-explosion which could send it down?
***** Still worth it I think...

Thank you Andy, The music and the fireworks are far better then flowers who die !

OMG. So awesome.
This looks like it should have been part of the Aladdin magic carpet ride.
I'm just glad the drone didn't take a direct hit. Lovely though.
Drone plus GoPro prolly would have been a $1,000 hit, so yeah. LOL
1) Turn off sound in the video
2) Play the "AWOLNATION - Sail"
3) Enjoy!
Enjoy what? I just checked that song and it's so awful and unfitting. So thank you but no, I preffer to listen to one of the master pieces of Andrea Bocelli than that ''thing''.
You wouldn't cut it at the Catalina Wine Mixer.

the song is italinan mama mia!!!

+Tinseltopia oh hell yes! This would've been amazing in 3D as it's right in the middle of the explosions.

On one hand, we have a beautifully artistic visual result and on the other there is the safety factor that you simply cannot ignore. Looks like some regulations may be in order.

HMMMMM enough gun powder to blow a city and you still have time to worry about the little drone over the water? the military and news, brainwashing, is why people have a problem with "drones", lol not hobbiest like myself who film as well..
