@roboh11 Q: why are you trolling this video?

A: because you have no life and had no one to spend new years eve with :)

@roboh11

Sydney's New Years eve fireworks are prime and foremost a tourism event. They're the key event in Tourism Australia's promotional calendar. Another reason so much money is spent on them is that they are a great fun way to celebrate our nations success, provide a free fun for millions of Aussies and provide much needed annual morale boost.

Actually roboh11 it isn't a waste of time, Although we spend $4 million dollars on this we get at least 40 million in return through the 400,000 international tourists that come to watch this.

London Fireworks: Time span --> 10 mins Cost -> 1.3 million pounds

Sydney Fireworks: Time span --> 12 mins

Cost -> 4 million AUD

Definitely Sydney hands down ^___^

type in london fireworks 2008, its pretty awesome

[paddysmith12345]

i stil think london was the best, wel im british so thts why

[munyul]

FYI.

BBC World listed the top 10 things to do in the world in December; such as Christmas markets in Germany, swimming in lake Geneva (why I don't know) and other things like that and for New Years Eve Sydney was listed as THE place to be!

You call it a waste of money, I'm sure Sydney tourism would disagree! BBC World is broadcast world wide, FREE advertising for Sydney thanks to "braindead" fireworks!

[UnboundVolts]

And with all the tourism your gonna make a fat profit from it.

[Presjar]

Nah, I don't think so, its just something good and fun and everyone can enjoy. Your almost 40 and seem to hang around youtube an awful lot, perhaps you need to grow up??

[Presjar]

Q:Why do we waste so much money on making some pretty lights and big explosions?

A:Because we can.... And they ARE pretty lights and big explosions.

Q:And what is this doing to the environment?

A:Absolutely Nothing

[curtisand]

I can't believe that Sydney does wicked things to promote environmental awareness (lights out day), but completely ignore this polution because they are the best at it.

How do you think those fireworks are produced? Environmentally, they're a diaster...a small scale disaster, but a disaster nevertheless.

[UnboundVolts]

Really, that's just garbage.

half of sydney would have been watching that display rather than driving in their car so really, what's the problem?

[curtisand]

I didn't realize that New Years Eve was such a "driving" event down in Australia. I know I'm ALWAYS driving in my car December 31st at 11:59. Give me a break.

[zach336]

i c what ur saying, but its new years eve who cares. its not like this happens every other day.

[emppio]

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW!!!

[marzsbar1]

This was the best fireworks i have ever seen!!!!!! good job channel 10!!!!!!

[shups2109]

I was there last year and caught the fireworks at Circular Quay! This year's fireworks were better than last year, it's not fair! I missed Sydney terribly!

[stevtomato]

T.T I was at the wrong place, observatory hill.. hahaha oh well, at least we know better to go to circular quay instead for 2009 one xD

Can't wait...

[kev88au]

haha, I was at circular quay last year.... Was awesome having the fireworks go off from buildings all around. Though there are probably another 200 000 people with the same idea... you are literally walking sideways brushing against every person to get somewhere...

[stevtomato]

indeed, I was being lazy and I started going to the city at like 8pm, so it was too late anyway. haha

[Vuotaraaputin]

London was abit more colourful, but it's nice atmosphere in here :D

Oh, and happy new year all!

[mrkuba]

6:26 :O
