New Years Eve 2007-2008: Times Square, New York City

[detroitmetro101]

people dont come to nyc on new years for fireworks(you can do that for the 4th of july, hudson river) they come for the overall atmosphere...........you are in a party with up to 2 million people.......

NYC is the best. :))

[zariqcools]

yup NYC IS THE BEST.

[gburgwill2008]

where's this filmed from... cause i've always wanted to do new years in NY, but its too cold to stand out in the freezing cold!!!!

[mikeelmgreen]

Hey, this was filmed from 1500 Broadway in an office building. My friend works there and gave us passes to get into the area. Otherwise I dont think I would have braved it! SO many people!

[ShinobiSinX]

cuz sydney was the best this year

new york fireworks last too slow and in one place

sydney was like in 5 places and over 12min.

and wow alot of ppl taking photo's down there xD

[darito90]

lol sydney was better..

[mikeelmgreen]

haha Sydney is always great, the fireworks are unbeatable... but seeing as I have watched NYE fireworks there the last 15 years straight (home town!) it was nice to have a change of scenery and a whole different experience. You dont see 20 blocks of people in one place in Sydney!

[lemty]

london was better too (better than this and sydney anyway)...

[saltlakecity2002]

At least New York and Sydney had music.

[lemty]

to distract the viewers from the shite fireworks!

[saltlakecity2002]

True, very true. You won that argument. Lol!

[MattIsMarclar]

yeah i'll agree...but even though we don't shoot fireworks off of every major building and bridge in nyc, we new yorkers sure know how to through an insane party. (i.e. over a million people crammed into times square screaming at the top of their lungs)

[blyton73]

london is a shitty place. new york is awesome

[lemty]

Sorry I couldn't understand a word of that. Take your eyes off the American flag long enough to look at what you're typing.

[blyton73]

ok i will if you pull your head out of your own ass for long enough to travel to these countries before commenting rather than just watchin on your tv at home. i have exsperienced new years eve in new york and london, have you??????

do you think a few fire works is what its all about???? how can you feel the atmosphere of a city you have never been to????

oh and by the way, i was born and live in the uk.

[lemty]

i have visited new york as a matter of fact and just thought it was a nasty place where people would soon as acknowledge you as commit suicide. americans are too patriotic. and all i said was london's FIREWORKS were much better. I never mentioned the "ambience". And leave your poor question-mark button alone!

[blyton73]

you want fireworks then there's this tradition called bonfire night.

so all these americans wanted to commit suicide after meeting you, well is'nt that your problem????

so have you stood in times square on new years eve then to exsperience what its like or were you dodging the question and making judgement based on a few fire works??????

as for new york being a nasty place it has one the lowest crime rates of any large city.

all i hear about london is another kid got stabbed/shot....
