Hi JMR83. I know what you mean about firecrackers being thrown about, they can be startling if you`re not ready for it. But I`ve never known anyone get injured at Las Fallas - except by the main event ( having their ears damaged ). If you can tell me where in the world they have pyrotechnic displays greater than this one, I`d be pleased to know about it.
Now I have to say to you, JMR83, sorry for the ad hominem attack ! But what you say does not reflect in any way the festival. The Spanish are far more respectful - from what I`ve seen - of their pyrotechnics than we are. Dangerous ? Of course it`s dangerous ! Why else would anyone travel across the world to see it ? Fucking dangerous ? Oh - there`s too much of the English Health and Safety brigade in you.
Ha ha, yes jackandbruce. I suspect JMR83 has been nowhere near Las Fallas de Valencia. Either that or he is derranged - calling it a pile of shit. I`ve been to many parts of the world and almost all of them put together would not equal the excitement of "Fallas."
But he`s from Essex ! Well that must explain why Las Fallas is so boring ! I mean, WOW - Essex !
@JMR83 there's something wrong with you mate. you're such a homo

I much prefer Cleethorpes and Skegness actually. Love the penny arcades! Southend and Eastbourne always my faves.

First things first, I have been to many parts of the world and there are more far special than Fallas.
I have been brought up in the environs of Watford and Basildon, btw and yes THEY ARE BORING TOWNS, OK!
TBH, I just don't think that much of Valencia compared to other great cities in Spain, apart from the arts and sciences complex, that is it.
As for little c**ts throwing bangers on the ground sometimes in front of you without warning some people could get crippled because of that, what shyt

i think JMR83 was probably high on poppers in Hackney and thought the gunshots was the Mascleta. Just agree with everything he says.

hello JMR83. Then go to Clackton on Sea, or Cleethorpes. Or Skegness. And leave the most exciting places in the world to such as I. I`ll be Back !
