Watch what happens when a man lights 10,000 sparklers on fire at the same time
- 8 years ago
KIEV, UKRAINE — A Ukrainian man stuck 10,000 sparklers together and lit them up to celebrate the New Year, creating perhaps the world's biggest ever Roman candle.
Bright spark Yuri Yaniv, 28, filmed the dazzling fire show on New Year's Eve and uploaded the clip to the Internet.
The sparklers, weighing 50 kilograms in total, would have burned for two days straight had they been lit one at a time, according to the Mirror.
A large ceramic pot, dirt, tin foil, and cardboard were used to create a relatively safe container for the sparklers.
Yaniv prepared two fire extinguishers and set up a GoPro camera before lighting the home-made Roman candle.
The gigantic tower of flames shot straight up into the air and sparks set the surrounding grass on fire — a radius of two meters. The fire was extinguished immediately.
"Before I made the sparkler, nobody thought that I could have crazy ideas. But now that people have seen the video, they've changed their opinion," Yaniv says in the clip.
