A dangerous fireworks show mishap

Several years ago, the first Victory Day Celebration took place in Yakutsk. The fireworks salute was designed to be the high point of the festival. But clearly something went wrong with the fireworks. You can see them flying across at the public instead of soaring majestically into the nighttime sky!

Dangerous fireworks

When night fell, the group started shooting fireworks in the sky.
