Ordinary Icelandic people in Reykjavik shooting up fireworks all over the city. Mind you not specialists or a preorganised show of fireworks just plain ordinary icelanders going nuts on new years eve. Just like we do every year.

I went to Iceland and saw this in 1999. I watched from The Pearl/Perlan. It was BETTER than the massive Y2K Millenium Display in London the year after! Icelanders are completely crazy - in a nice way! :o)

In the US, fireworks usage is picking up on New Years Eve. Many backyard shows rival those on the 4th of July now, especially in the southern US.

It can't be 90% in Reykjavík you probably mean Reykjavík,Hafnarfjörður,Kópavo­gur and Garðabær I'd never be somewhere else than in Iceland(Ísland) on New Years Eve(Gamlárskvöld).
