I wired up, and set off the charges for a couple of these shows this weekend. Very cool stuff. The firebombs are the highlight of the show. Comments?

That looks like fun, but it also seems quite dangerous. lets say you're a marine and you step a bit far to the right and boom you get blown up by a bomb. The sherman was great though. All of a sudden you hear a loud growling and here comes da tank. Overall, I thought the video was quite impressive.

TBQH, the charges are only throwing pete moss. Ive been right next to one while it went off, and it shakes you, but theres not enough power to kill you. The main ones, which we also keep away from our marines, are the two heavy charges behind the main bunker and the firebombs, which are also out of the marines paths. But a nod to safety indeed. We have been very fortuneate not to have any accidents so far.

Me and my dad do pyrotecnics. We are with melrose( a company in NC). I will be able to do the state fair this year. I have already done a show for a minor legue baseball team and have done several Duke Football, NC State, Wake Forest, and UNC fireworks. Its the coolest job ever.
