Yidio Video of the Day (Freedom Edition): 'Camera on a Firework'
by Richard Sharp
What happened when videographer Jeremiah Warren strapped a tiny, $120 dollar wide-angle HD camera to a boatload of fireworks and hit record? Patriotism, my friends. Sheer, unadulterated patriotism.
In today's Yidio Video of the Day, we take a few very brief, very fast and explosive rides on the back of some exploding bottle rockets.
If you're looking to get your America on, this is the YouTube equivalent of mainlining the scene from "Rocky IV" where Rocky takes down Ivan Drago.
Don't believe us? Watch "Camera on a Firework" now:
Btw, it turns out Warren's kick-ass vid took more work than you might imagine. According to his YouTube page:
"It ended up being harder to get a good shot than I though it would be. I was going to mount fins on the to stabilize them, but by the time I got the idea I already shot through my supply, and when I went to get more they had put a ban on fireworks sales. :-/"
Damn fireworks laws.
Happy Fourth of July weekend, everyone!
