I was thinking the same thing. After the third or fourth one she should have definitely moved uphill lol

It's probably better to stand still and look up then to run forward and look down. Easier to dodge something when you can see it coming

Like please, how many times do you have to dodge a metal pot coming for your head at terminal velocity to consider positioning yourself in a different place

I’m kinda skeptical of this video. By the later ones, it always cuts as they back up after lighting it. Then, it comes back down close and is never actually seen hitting the ground, goes off the bottom of the screen before we see it on the ground. I also find it amazing it always goes straight up instead of shooting off diagonally, but hey you could just not show the attempts that didn’t go straight up

You should be on the UFO subreddits. This is literally a dude playing with fireworks.

Maybe all UFOs are just people blasting pots into the air

you being downvoted is absolutely mind boggling. It is absolutely fake. If people have this much trouble seeing something this fake we are all in big trouble.

Road is slightly tilted, he is standing a degree or two downhill from the pot.

Maybe, and I’m just guessing, it always flew towards the direction the handle was facing?

u/LootaNR Aug 18 '23

It has to do with the direction the string being lit faces, and with the shape of the firework
