This was so poetic and articulate. Well done.

[@chaos4973]

When I was in my late teens, I got lucky and got to do this as a second job. I worked on about 40 shows over 2 and a half years, and each show was an amazing experience. (And the pay was pretty good too.🙂👍)

[@USATODAYLife]

That's awesome! Seems like the excitement and adrenaline would never get old. This was certainly an incredible experience for us.

You know that guy took that all the way to the spank bank

I’m a pyro here at home I use a blow torch as well now when I first started getting into fireworks in my life I was so terrified at the time but when I was asked if I wanted to light my very first show in my life I was completely shaking after it was over And I was in tears in a good way cause it was in credible :D also take a look at my pyro vr videos on my page :)

[@horsefeathersmcclipclopert5659]

God I wish I could do this. Holy crap.

[@Prostyle0079]

You can...anyone can work for a pyro company

[@Beautylifestyle222]

I just hope everyone is ok it sounds like thunder or bombs depending on how you look at it

[@nuggets1204]

I have lite a morter and u can feel it lol

[@1gallimaufry]

I have so many issues with how these are set up. Dangerous as hell. Especially hand lighting the show. Looks like someone was lazy in prep work. Who the hell approved the setup?

[@Beautylifestyle222]

Well usually it’s state approved permits but yes their not doing the set up right for some fucked up reason.

[@michaelmeden9117]

@@Beautylifestyle222 I know the law is different from state to state but what I am referring to is most sites require an inspection from the authority having jurisdiction and will have that authority sign off well before any fireworks are discharged. Has nothing to do with the initial permit. The show is not legal until the lead operator, Police and fire sign off for that inspection.

[@Beautylifestyle222]

@@michaelmeden9117 ok also the public must be notified I forgot that detail as well taxpayers have a right to know if they live in that area

[@LIGIADZIEZIC]

1.3 shows for 25+ years . . All of it is hard work . . but at the same time you get a work out . . She couldn.t have said it any better . .For me hand lighting . . .wouldn't have it any other way !

[@sacareapyro6326]

12min that's it fk that

[@michaelromano8335]

Dude has never shot a 16in 😆

[@coltonc5043]

Probably not by hand

[@1vp78z]

He has..

[@1vp78z]

He’s my dad ;-;

[@ThePyroLady11]

I am a Professional Pyrotechnican & there is so much wrong with this video. Where the hell are their helmets, which NFPA 1123 requires!!! These guys have absolutely no business lighting anything!

[@chrisbot18]

any chance you can guide me through the steps on becomming a Pyrotechnician? Seriously love the craft and would love to join.

[@kshawnrobinson808]

@@chrisbot18I’m in the process of becoming one,& I can help you out

[@PyroStuckey]

What else is wrong with this shoot? And if you read the code, helmets are not required.

[@Rosinronin]

⁠@@PyroStuckeywe couldn't see the crowd but I would be willing to bet they were too close to the fireworks themselves which is covered by NFPA 1123

[@PyroStuckey]

@@Rosinronin What would make you say that? Audience beyond required distance in NFPA 1123. Glad you know my site, setup, and where things are. Your comment is useless.
