Across Southern USA there are bans in place because of hot dry conditions so many Americans will not be seeing their traditional 4th July displays.

And with an awesome display of what can go wrong with even the best prepared fireworks evening, this video gets you wondering if such things will remain a part of the scene at all.

Watch as the display comes to a deafening climax as the remaining fireworks all go up at once.

…and just be glad that the people had to sit at a distance to see. I certainly hope that no one got hurt.
