How It's Made (Fireworks)

[lsteer100]

is it wise to tell people how to make fireworks?

[Pyromight]

@lsteer100 Most of the powders used to make fireworks are very difficult to get without a pyrotechnician's license.

[lsteer100]

@Pyromight ok. that makes me feel better.

[MakHeeAn]

He seems to work on the fireworks carefully so it won't explode. The firework's making process must have killed a lot of people.

[TheXtriller]

They must kill a lot of creepers

[jaycjay17]

Wow all that work into one firework ;D

[MrAde9999]

lool the stars can detonate hahahahahaah. any1 using touch sensetive flash powder in stars?

[sirfire3682]

[r0b0195530]

Tim0090@ ah yea it does if u put pressure on it:)

[MrAlastair10]

You didn't mention he needs to change his gloves to work with a different explosive!!!!!

[Serostern]

3:!1 "He has to treat them gingerly or they can DETONATE!"

No it can't... Stars (wich are based on gunpowder) can never detonate. Hell, unless its packed it can't even explode.

[tim0090]

gunpowder doesn't detonate!!! 

[michael36693]

ITS UNFAIR THAT CHINA CAN BYE FIREWORKS AND AUSTRALIA AND OTHER COUNTRY'S CANT JUST BECAUSE PEOPLE BLOW FINGERS OF AUSTRALIAS STUPID GOVERNMENT

[crazyhamster51]

Yeah, but I wanna know how people make the "stars" and other components that go into making the final product!

[raidz10]

leave it to canadians to fuck something up from 0:00 - 5:30

[halowaffles]

@raidz10 Your dumb

[SuperAaaaa123456]

[drewsisely]

[ericsantiago011]

that was really delicious!!

[AlphahawkA25]

cool, oh it's canada, oh in that sense i'm going to the american version

[Anthony82949]

did you make those comets?

[MattS3NTM]

why would you buy colorless glue just to color it? i'm confused

[luno44]

This looks to me like the theory of how they're made. I've seen videos of them being made in China and I'll believe those long before I believe this is how it's actually done.

[Pyromight]

@luno44 All pyrotechnic companies have various techniques on how they make their own fireworks. Most fireworks are from China, and are widely exported around the world, the United-States more so. America has gained it's technique from italian pyrotechnics and chinese pyrotechnics. The difference, chinese shells are mostly spherical and italian shells, cylindrical. I recall the exact same video you are talking about, however they do the same shell repeatedly. Italian shells are widely different.

[r2darky]

@Pyromight this shell is different than the ones you both are talking about, the way he made this multibreak shell is better than the paper crafted 1, and lets not forget this is for mass sale, thay wont me a whole paper 1 for you if thay want profit(:

[TAH4T]

Why does it sound like porn music in the background???

[Frikgeek]

the narrator sounds like she's watching someone make a fucking cake.

[S1995N]

close your eyes and listen 4:05 to 4:12 lol

[planbjaksontv2]

@S1995N Dirty child haha

[The2323full]

@S1995N is that supposed to be funny ? what is so interesting about that sentance? I dont know why someone thumbed up your comment

[sethblatt]

@S1995N wow thats very immature. Can't anything these days be told with some sexual joke? it isn't funny

[afrolithuanian]

always retard narrators

[9DragonMaster]

what fucking idiots would thumbs down this vid? I added this to favs, because it gave me like 3 new ideas for my own shells =D fireworks are cheap as a hobbie, and wonderful artwork that everyone enjoys.

[BlackandChrome]

@9DragonMaster

Thumbs down because of narration quality, and accuracy of terms related to explosives and fireworks in general. Not everything that burns is an explosive, and explosives like black powder, flash powder, etc do not detonate, you can't "detonate" with static electricity either. Stars burn, they don't explode and although they are made from similar ingredients as explosives they are not made of explosives.

[9DragonMaster]

@BlackandChrome your talking all technical its not required. everyone knows the news media are a bunch of cock suckers, reading from a teleprompter. The idea's are what important, not your beliefs.

[BlackandChrome]

@9DragonMaster

You supposedly make fireworks as a hobby and you don't think being technical is a good thing? That's concerning to say the least.

As far as my "beliefs" I suggest you start realizing them as facts, because fact always matter, if they don't matter to you, then... Well, that's just sad.

[9DragonMaster]

@BlackandChrome you deserve a detonated fist on your face

[BlackandChrome]

@9DragonMaster ooooh sounds like you're tired of getting schooled and lack the creativity/intelligence to come up with a decent response? That means the next phase is obviously indiscriminate name calling, am I correct?

[BlackandChrome]

@9DragonMaster

Yes, because there is so much substance behind threatening someone with a good ass kicking on the internet, honestly stop yelling at me, I nearly wet myself because you said fuck more than once. The best you can do on the internet is insult someone and cause irrefutable rage, which you obviously do not excel at. Being an overaggressive douche, prime for the insulting, on the other hand you are well suited for.

[Naturepheonix]

Mag neee SHIUM!

[Dakkosa]

"What's a holiday celebration without fireworks?"

Good for nature?

[9DragonMaster]

@Dakkosa i dont see fireworks on 911

[Dakkosa]

@9DragonMaster What the hell is 911? O_o

[ISmellLikeP00]

She said to be careful not to detonate the firework stars, the stars burn they dont detonate or explode

[fightingbulldog95]

Awww... I wanted to see the guy's firework!!! ;(

[TheBrokeassstudent]

who the fuck dislikes this? I see no way that anyone could dislike this video.

[ISmellLikeP00]

@TheBrokeassstudent people that dont like firewroks and want to ban them

[pwetkopogi]

perfect - tomorrow is new year's eve!

[dridgway13]

this is interesting and awesome

[ry661]

Its cool how they make it!

[nonfoods1]

Should butter one up and pick someones ass

From parliament we can stick it up. Guess who. And it's not the janitor.

[str8out]

This shows how the fireworks are assembled NOT how it is made from scratch. Obviously they don't want the teach the terrorists how to make gunpowder :rollingeyes: ....

[KingdomHearts1207]

intresting. o_O

[Urmom882]

This is very interesting.

[allstarweekendlov]

how interesting

[p0nypants]

Now everyone is going to go and make home made fireworks

[redsoxxx1234]

ha they said spooning

[PyroDesu]

@redsoxxx1234 and what is funny about that?

[redsoxxx1234]

@PyroDesu i take it ur to young to kno what it means

[PyroDesu]

@redsoxxx1234 And you're probably too immature to be saying it. Not to mention your atrocious spelling.

[redsoxxx1234]

@PyroDesu its txt talk dumb ass

[1234567890nam]

breast feeding video its sofunny 30mil people watch it wat pervets

[PyroDesu]

@1234567890nam WTF does this have to do with this video?

[aaronboi77]

The voice sounds like Sandra Tsing Lo from KPCC.

[XxXRTWXxX]

it look like mini bazooka :)

[lifes40123]

selling fireworks is like selling guns!! : ]

[PyroChemicals]

from what I Heard making fireworks is now illegal in Canada even for companies, so this video must be very outdated...

[Pyromight]

@PyroChemicals Not true. There are alot of Canadian firework companies all around the country. And still produce displays. This video is about 6 years old. But yeah, whoever told you that was wrong, we still have fireworks over here in Canada.

[PyroChemicals]

@Pyromight what I heard is that you are allowed import them and shoot them, but you can't make them anymore, not even companies can make them.

[Pyromight]

@PyroChemicals Like I said, whoever told you that is wrong. Of course your allowed to shoot them, but sooner or later, fireworks will come to an end to reduce pollution. And yes, companies like Royal Pyrotechnie, Vulcan Fireworks, and many more companies are based in Canada. They are still made and the only way they cannot produce fireworks is if they are not permitted or if they go bankrupt. There are some companies being banned in Mexico and Africa, maybe the person that told you meant them..

[PyroChemicals]

@Pyromight ERD Canada's website says you cannot make fireworks legally in Canada. In this video, a person in Canada is making fireworks. This video is outdated.

[Pyromight]

@PyroChemicals This video is old. But I've been part of a fireworks company based in Canada for my 2nd year. And we are allowed to make fireworks. Even many others, so I'm not sure..

[PyroChemicals]

@Pyromight which company? I don't know any that manufacture in Canada anymore. HANDS moved manufacture to China already.

[Pyromight]

@PyroChemicals BEM, Vulcan, Royal Pyrotechnie, Rocket Fireworks. BEM and Royal Pyrotechnie make their own fireworks, where as Rocket Fireworks and Vulcan get theirs from China.

[Pyromight]

@PyroChemicals BEM, Vulcan, Royal Pyrotechnie, Rocket Fireworks. BEM and Royal Pyrotechnie make their own fireworks, where as Rocket Fireworks and Vulcan get theirs from China.

[imhotcause]

Thumbs up if you agree if you like the man speaking better than this whore....

[CryHawkProductions]

such a smart ammount of lift charge for such a big shell ?? lol

[CryHawkProductions]

i wanna see the explosion ^^

[Dalemoooooon]

Such as magneesheesyum for white..... lol

[Palamneus]

Its like making a cake! That explodes!

[starshock01]

a holiday without fireworks? lol does christmas use fireworks in canada? im pretty sure it doesnt o.o;

[jorkey0roblox]

stars is not an explosive... its a flamable, right?

[ashleyannist]

cool

[slowman1996]

hehe! stars thats detonating!XD the moste funny thing ever!

[MrWalkman19]

is black powder similar to gunpowder?

[bluefox216]

@MrWalkman19 black powder IS a kind of gunpowder

the first and only kinds for hundreds of years

[101RandomFilms]

sort of but gun powder is more powerfull

[theseasonofnoreason]

nope, been inflamed by the AH to 1g

[AeonBaller]

Each firework=50 silver

[seanThree16]

This Dwarfs engineering skill=450

[habbekratser]

STARS DETONATING!! HAHAHAHA

That's the biggest crap i heard in my life

[Pikapii2Pikachu]

4:16 it sounds like he wrapps the firework in  CRAP paper

ROMALOL(rolling on my ass lol )

x_x

[lms264t]

He is using Black Powder as the explosive. Regular gun powder would literally blow the firework to pieces because it burns so hot and fast.

[Longway2fall]

You are right, he is using black powder rather than gun powder. However, you are wrong about why. If he used regular smokeless powder it wouldn't even work, because it requires high pressure to produce expanding gas effectively. Black powder burns well at regular atmospheric pressure.

[lms264t]

Thanks for the explianation. I did not know that. I wrongly assumed the smokless powder would act the same way that is does in firearms cartridges.

[lilmarine93]

since when did comets explode? lol

[ENGterrorman]

the fireworks wont detonate unless he hits it very hard with a hammer or something, its rather hard actuli.

+ her voice is annoying

[MrThekingjake505]

@MrAirgunlover lol ur watching thos vid!

[MrThekingjake505]

@MrThekingjake505 i didnt expect u to be watching this vid?

[levif13]

fireworks are awesome, the popping noise is the best in fireworks

[kode1303]

She said to be careful not to detonate the fireworks - I've never heard of fireworks detonating - exploding yes, detonating no.

[bestvidsdottk]

@kode1303 detonate is also correct

[chamarakalo2]

@kode1303 whatever...

[theartilerysheller1]

Whenever the discovery channel tries to explain fireworks many of their facts are off

[gehtomacgyver]

@theartilerysheller1 lol I know

[thoosejakob149]

will that little lift power lift that big rocket :O?

[frietjericcardo]

@thoosejakob149 they always put more BP in the launching tubes just before the fireworks show. this powder only ignites the other.

[ilovecows228]

lol im sorry but im a smoker n if i had that job, my ass will be crispy

[Peter18159]

there are many things i dont get about this video, how come the second compartment goes on top of the first one? and wat happened to the bottom part?

[bjoern60]

thx for uploading this :-D

[Pyromight]

No problem!

[thehellsyeah123]

i gotta be honest if i was the guy doing that job i would be shaking for the entire day from fear of blowing up and thanks for posting ive always wanted to see how fireworks where made

[Pyromight]

Trust me, this guy has tons of experience.

[sheupe]

Do you have the American version?

[Pyromight]

I don't have the American version. Discovery Channel, and How it's Made in Canada, only have things that were manufactured in Canada. So unfortunatley no.

[xBangergoosEx]

damn this must be the 10th time i've watched this.

Why so little lift charge though? That huge shell must way a few pounds

[Pyromight]

No this shell is not big at all. It only ranges from a diameter of 4". So your talking maybe 900 grams which is close to a pound. The heavist of a shell for me would be a 60lbs fully loaded 12" shell. Which is the heaviest I've tried to carry. You wouldn't want to try to lift it. With 900 grams for a 4" shell, you'd need 450 grams of lift. Which is contained in the small bag. The company makes sure every gram is well weighed in the bag before using it. Which is why the bag contains 450 grams.

[Pyrotechnics88]

the way nighthawkinlight makes them in much easier =p

[xBangergoosEx]

i love How ITs Made. next summer when i go up to Canada, im gonna come visit you. ill bring my liscense and my pyrotechnic gear so we can build some 12" multi breaks ;)
