Let's Get This Canada Day/4th Of July Party Started!: Fireworks In Super Slow-Motion

OMGWTF4THOFJULYBBQ!
These are a couple videos to get your Canada Day/4th of July holiday weekend kicked off right. The first couple are slow-motion videos of fireworks going off shot with a Phantom at 2,000 frames-per-second. The last one is a guy shooting off fireworks that have little video cameras attached to them. That one is really spinny and'll probably make you puke. Also, the deviled eggs I made for my 4th of July party. Get it?! Because I made them in May. I can't help it, I'm a planner!
Hit the jump for the videos, then go have yourself a (relatively) safe Canada Day/4th of July holiday weekend. I'll be thinking about you when I'm pointing fireworks at my friends. FRIENDS, LOL!

A 62-year old man was arrested after barricading himself in his house and then shooting one of the police robots that authorities sent in after him. Admittedly, I would have done the same thing. Johnny Five is not a professional negotiator. Michael Blevins was charged with... / Continue →
