I grew up during the cold war, so Russians always fascinated me. Thank God we get their YouTube uploads. Since everyone has dashboard camera's in their vehicles we can always get road videos. But now a guy decided to burn 10,000 sparklers at once. You know, to bring in the new year like a good Russian should.

The video is in Russian, but with English subtitles. My favorite part is when they talk about bringing fire extinguishers so as "to not to start fire to surrounding grass, like last time." Of course this is not the first time they set crap on fire. Silly American.

It turned out to be pretty cool. I might have to try this on the 4th of July. Don't think I can wait till next New Years.
