This Is What The World’s Largest Firework Looks Like—1,000 Pounds Of Mind Blowing Explosion

It’s not the 4th of July so the concept of fireworks right now can be unsettling to some, but this is one firework you do NOT want to miss out on.

Recently in Konosu city, Saitama, Japan the world’s largest firework was released…a mind-shattering 1,000 pounds of Oooooo’s and Aaaaaaaaaa’s. My biggest and most important question here is why do we not have this firework here in America? Why isn’t this badass piece of firework perfection blowing up in every town from D.C. to Los Angeles, and Maine on down to Key West? We want this firework, it’s in our blood. In fact: we need this firework. We can’t sit back and let ourselves be upstaged by these Japanese fireworks technicians!

Here’s the 1,000 Pound firework to which I’m referring (and below is footage from the entire fireworks show):
