Iceland Fireworks (New Years)

[einsiol]

@jackal533 Ég held að það sé ekki rétt, samkvæmt Evrópuvefnum eru þau regluverk í ESB um flugelda nú þegar tilstaðar í EES og EFTA ríkjum. Það eru aðalega bara hertar reglur um aldurstakmark vegna kaupa og reglur um öryggi. Ég finn ekkert sem bendir á bann gegn flugeldum. Það gildir bann á kaupum á flugeldum á flestum dögum ársins núþegar, tímabilið í kringum áramót eru undartekning sem myndi ekki falla úr gildi þó við færum í ESB. Þú verður að benda mér á einhverjar aðrar heimildir annars.

[jackal533]

[einsiol]

@jackal533 Afhverju ættum við ekki að geta keypt flugelda ef við förum í ESB?

[jackal533]

@einsiol þeir banna það

[1fbbest]

darn i messed up my comment, my keyboard is failing or something, I said there are laws on how big they can get but those laws still let HUGE fireworks but thats just not enough so we move in illegally and sell them from family to family, and no one cares. We then use these huge iron tubes to drop HUGE round bomb like fireworks in them and shoot that, now that's illegal. But no one cares, everyone likes it. We also buy these huge cakes that have 100+ rounds in them. (they are legal)

[1fbbest]

O pahico, that's just little compared to the new rich neighbourhoods around where I live, and I sure do spend more than 1.5k dollars.

And for example that tiny firework (cake as we call it, the box) that was one of the tinyest fireworks I've ever seen, they become much much bigger, but unfortunatly there is a lw on how big they can get, so we just more bigger ones in illegally, DUH. lol.

[lindab94]

there are big cakes in iceland to, this one was just little. That doesnt mean all of them are and these fireworks that u see in this vid are not the biggest so dont say that this was little caus it can get a lot bigger in iceland to

[1fbbest]

litli lygari, fyrir miðnætti? I don't think so.

[lindab94]

það var nú einu sinni þannig

[lindab94]

dam u, there are big cakes in iceland to, this one was just little. That doesnt mean all of them are these fireworks can get a lot bigger to. Ur country is not the only one that has big fireworks.

And of corse this vid might have bin taken before midnight

[1fbbest]

I'm talking about the new neighbourhoods in Iceland, dickhead.

[lindab94]

fuck u

[HoribiFuckis]

This is so fun

[goldenchocolate]

Damn Icelanders r lucky fireworks are entirely legal to buy and use during the month around new years eve!

Lol I'd light them in the streets, make them explode on people, and run :D

[bigdstocktrader]

This is precisely why they are not legal in most places in America.

[goldenchocolate]

although i was just joking, ur right, probably some people actually WOULD do that

[icelander4life]

me and my friend blew up a trashcan and a busstop(ther was this big hole in the busstop) and the police came....and the tuke my fireworks :(

[lindab94]

thats why they are unlegal in ur country

[goldenchocolate]

i was just joking

[lindab94]

i know

[saevaroa]

One feels proud to watch this. There is something so Icelandic about this.

[i001100i]

I'm American but I can understand that...I'm going to be spending 3 months at Sólheimar (I'm not sure if you've heard if it or not) next fall studying ecology and renewable energies. I can't wait!

[PesiCool]

I thought Sólheimar was a place for mentally challenged people xD

[arnifreyrhelgason]

Yeah,

we are fucking loonies! :D

[bullskitur]

Sydney, a city of roughly 4million people, bought 50 tons of fireworks. Iceland, country of 300.000, bought 700 tons of fireworks.

[bullskitur]

Ah yes and all those pretty lights in the video are just bunch of eskimos hurling flashlights into the air.

[HugrunL95]

@bullskitur haha...we are not eskimos!! we look a lot like people from Denmark, Sweden or Norway not Greenland!

[vetrardimma]

@HugrunL95 þetta er Íslendingur 

[007yor]

@bullskitur So to conclude every citizen had like 2.3 tons of firework? That has got to be The MOST AWESOME THING EVAH

[einsiol]

@007yor I think the tons are just what was bought in by wholesales. I would say no more than 50kg per person.

[SunnevaOskHd]

You shouldn't sleep on new year's eve!!!!

[firerestarter]

we are one crazy, drunk and rich nation

[diablo10001]

[ACTORDAVIDTRAN]

Wow. Lots.

[kitkatsandtwixrox]

We didnt have any fireworks :(

[03cammd79]

that definatly beats Sydney

[diablo10001]

Hell yehh it does...:D

[03cammd79]

And possibly london and new york. Especially cus its just everybody having fireworks at the same time rather than an organised display...

[atlanticus]

lol, Icelanders...

[icelander4life]

did you now that in iceland ther are no laws regarding fireworks

and thats a lot of fun :)

[siggisli]

actually.. there is a law.. its just suspended around christmas until the 13th day of christmas the cops took me the day after the 13th of christmas when i was young for blowing up some fireworks

[viktor1987x]

I´ve also heard that we spend the most money in fireworks then any other nation in the world, what i mean is taht we are about 310.000 and we buy fireworks and spend on the like we are 500.000-800.000 ppl. We spend many millions in it every year.

[FredT34]

Hey, i thought I already had commented this one... I was there for 2006 Eve, it was marvellous. What you can't see here : 1) It LASTS 3 HOURS like this, not to speak about the 3 DAYS less crazy... 2) It STINKS powder!!!

Icelandic people are the Best in the World for Crazy things!

[Tigice]

Finally I can show people what New Years is all about!

Spent New Years in London this year - Where were the fireworks?

To those who are appalled by our love of burning money, you will be happy to know that it all goes to charity.

and st1dinoh - I'm sure Iceland will have your babies... that's another thing most Icelanders like doing. Got to keep the population growing!

[st1dinoh]
