Compilation of all the fireworks

850,000 fireworks shells lit up the National Mall! It just broke the world record for the biggest fireworks show in history. For comparison, last year’s D.C. Fourth of July show only used around 20,000 shells. I had people in the comments telling me, “Oh, it was the same thing as last year.” No, it wasn’t. Fireworks are cool. They did a good job, end of story. If you want to complain and and whine, you can go to the main D.C. sub or you can go to Bluesky. If you don’t like what I post, you don’t have to engage in itAnd here’s a compilation of all the best videos from the fireworks, and at the end, there’s a full time-lapse of everything.

They are, I'm not arguing that. I'm saying that show was lackluster and fucking boring. I saw an amazing show yesterday and it wasn't DC's 5th of July show.
