Spectacular. I'm a retired professional fireworks operator. I used to believe nothing else could match the sensory experience of fireworks. I've now seen water fountains come pretty close, in Dubai and drones are definitely going beyond.
Absolutely.
Some of the great shows that I have seen are where they have had fireworks and drone's together. I think we are in the beginnings of greater things to come.
How about a Drone platform to launch Fireworks from a higher altitude?
I honestly don’t think so, it’s all a bit slow and no sound. Can’t beat the spectacle of fireworks, it’s the bangs and lights that make it. While impressive, drones are a long way off the excitement of fireworks.
I'm retired lighting guy and had the honor of doing shows with fireworks (NYC 4th of July in 80's - early 90's) and like you, I didn't think what we were doing then could be beat. Then along comes the drones. Makes me realize I retire way too early. OUTSTANDING JOB SKYELEMENTS!!!!!!!!!
@@Yosser70 You haven't yet seen the proper shows then. Drones can be as fast and dynamic as fireworks. The only thing you can't have with drones are the bangs (but I reckon that's an extremely good thing for each and every animal in the city!!!)
The show showcased in this video was one of the most boring drone shows I have ever seen. Who cares if there were 1001 drones... It was dead boring, slow paced, hardly any movement (if at all); they were all static images. Sorry Sky Elements.... (eventhough I know the learning curve is very steep for stuff like this)
Never saw a drone show from another drone's perspective - Nice touch. Thanks Sky Elements Drone Show!!!
My first drone show, I'm 71. I think about how my grandparents would have reacted. Incredible!
I’ve always imagined if it was possible that Americas Founding Father’s came back to life & see what America has become today?!?!?!?
@@sawittwo who cares about them? let's bring ms. tubman back to give it a look instead
Congrats for the FPV pilot. Very brave maneuvers. I would not dare ...
Not only amazing, but absolutely beautiful coverage from the air, ground and FPV. World-Class!
Props to the person flying the drone through the drones ! Amazing show.
I'm pretty sure there's one computer doing all of the "flying."
all the drones is being controlled by a specialized laptop!
The FPV camera drone was manually flown. Agreed, props!
FPV=drone was definitely manually flown.
Props...? what is your definition of this word "Props" please, me no understand modern slang language.
This is amazing; I am the owner of a rescue dog, who must have had some bad experiences in her previous life, meaning that fireworks really scare her. She is a large dog but if there are fireworks going off she lies on me shaking, with each bang in the sky met with uncontrollable quivers right through her body. I fear she would try to run away if we didn’t sit with her as there is absolute panic in her eyes. I wish those people letting off the fireworks could see this panic, as it might make them reconsider. I admit that I have let off fireworks before in my life, but I had not witnessed the fear they can produce in animals. A previous dog was a gun dog, and he would just get excited as he thought he would be retrieving some pheasants or partridges. But I hope that these stunning shows will replace fireworks, certainly in built up areas. I have been to firework displays too in the past, and at least there dog owners could choose to take their dogs out of the area for the time of the fireworks, although personally I would prefer it if even those shows were held well away from built up areas. My dog had been a stray dog at one period in her life before she was rescued, and I can only imagine that on nights like 31 December, she would have just run in complete panic, and an 80kg dog has the potential to cause a nasty car crash should she run across roads.
From the Wright Bros... to Space shuttles to the Moon... to the outrageous precision of proximity flying... It's truly astonishing.
Absolutely amazing!!
Congratulations to all the Sky Elements team.
That was realy amazing! Never seen something like this. Thank you Sky Elements Drone Shows and greatings from Germany!
The programming that went into this was amazing. Beautiful job, Thank you, and Happy New Year.
AWESOME! Thanks so much for posting this incredible show. The future approaches us and it lookes amazing.
Amazing work guys and you beat the record ! Congratulations !
That was amazing, the possibilities are endless .... imagine being able to give directions in an emergency, highlight a safe zone, send a message, send an image, send peace ....
Wonderful!!! Thank you for this incredible show!!
This is even better than fireworks! I did not realize drones could put on a 3D light show (and another drone flies through it: cool!). Salute to the geniuses who came up with this idea and executed it.
Super impressed how you all have made this work. Your handling of the logistics that go into such a show are top notch.
From assembling, fixing, placing, coding, tagging, storing, moving, setting up and charging the drone fleet, to working out the patterns, the show, the narratives, to your decent sized staff. The various permitting requirements, local challenges, the weather, the place to launch from, the other local businesses involved. And then to make it work inside a business model on top of that.
Impressive! Fantastic! Challenging! Awesome!
Thanks for sharing this with all of us. Definitely made my family smile, and the only thing they thought about was how cool the story was with the drones!
Cheers!
Just randomly found this and I absolutely love it perfect show
Just watching the drones is pretty amazing but then when you think what is required to do this, it becomes mind blowing.
If you have to think of the technical work that went into it to find it amazing, then the show missed the mark.
I love how drone shows are growing in popularity. I would love to see a show in person.
The Seattle fireworks show was done using drones this New Years Eve. So amazing to see new technology. I love that I’ve lived to see the development of computers from the clunky beginning to now coordinating the flights of drones for an air show. I hope I live for another 30 years, who knows what might be developed.
i am reminded of the first computer games of the 80's with very basic graphics that seemed so realistic at the time. Imagine how much that has changed in the following decades and no doubt the years to come will bring about displays by drones that will blow our minds with unimaginable creativity.
Oh my gosh as long as i been flyin drones this is the most amazing thing i have ever seen compliments to all .
Drones must be the number one best invention of the last few decades, they have so many applications for exploration and study of places impossible to see otherwise.
Awesome as always. Love the story about the drones. Merry Christmas to Sky Elements 👍🌲
Hats off to the crew who put this on I can only try to think of the thousands of dollars it to to put on a free show to the public hope the best in the future to you all
absolutely wonderful ! this is more than we could have ever dreamed when i was growing up. the sky is not the limit anymore. what you could with this and real fireworks on the 4th oh my.
I'm 63. Thank you for showing me what the future will be. Amazing!!!
Beyond phenomenal! Wish there was a way to integrate something like this with our 300 Jeep Christmas light parade here in SW Florida next year. ❤️ this!!!
Wow absolutely amazing never seen a drone show live but maybe one day
Great job guys!! ❄️🌲🚂
Sir. What you Did for these Kids &Parents and everyone was the Best thing ever done for People. You are a Santa of Joy and Please Be Safe and Peace Be With You. Thanks
Stunning!
I haven't been this impressed with light shows since I saw the Genesis, "Seconds Out" tour and their lasers back in 1977.
To the fireworks folks (of which I'm one) who say this doesn't compare; well it doesn't compare to watching horse racing either but it's not competing with that, and it's obviously not in the big bang competition at all. It's different. I love fireworks as much as the next pyromaniac, but for a different reason.
It's equally stunning that we've come this far technologically.
4:46 I can only imagine what drivers on the highway thought when they saw this!
That has DEFINITELY got to be the best drone light show I've ever seen. Other drone light shows have all been done with 'static' images, sometimes with occasional...but, very minimal...'moving' images. This show was done almost entirely with 'moving' images. I'd go so far as to call this "drone light animation". 👍🏼👍🏼 🤙🏼
You haven't seen the drone shows the Chinese put on.
very false
you need to look up "3d drone light shows" this is far from the best drone show
@@VroomTech Where did I say it was "the best"? I didn't. I said it's the best THAT I HAVE SEEN.
@@hawk6dm7 just watched a couple before seeing this. REALLY spectacular. The twee, saccharine sweet accompanying soundtrack didn't help. Kids stuff compared to the Chinese
Just stunning. Thanks for all you do. I’m sure it brought and sill bring much more joy that day and in the years ahead. Best of wishes in 2023
Drone footage flying thru a drone show is very meta
Mocern technology is mind boggling!! Hours and hours of programming must have gone into the light show! WELL DONE!!
Best. Christmas. Ever.
Ever.
2016 was better..
And 2018..
Even 2020 and 2021..
This year, butter is $7lb.. so not so much
@@TheRugghead use country crock
@@TheRugghead 😂😂😂
amazing and professional work...Your skills and knowledge are breathtaking. I wish Ukraine would get 1001 professional drones to destroy 1001 tanks (preferably unmanned).
Thank you so much! I am thrilled to see this video! So talented! ❤️ Incredible ❤️❤️❤️
I have never seen anything like it! This technology and creativity are nothing less than phenomenal!
This is the most spectacular light show I have ever seen. I can't even begin to imagine the mathematics involved to ensure the drones don't crash into each other. Truly AWESOME!!!!
I sure would like to see the 'back story' of how in the world you guys pull this off. Amazing.
And HOW MANY PILOTS were needed... 1000 pilots and an AI coordinator - amazing...
@@thesoundsmith its all AI
Exactly the question I wanted to ask.
It’s all computer generated. It is quite amazing.
I would love a behind the scenes look at how these shows are made.
this reminds me of the beginning of laser shows at music festivals in the late 90's, quite a basic graphical presentation from a viewers POV, but there is a real appreciation for the technology and its future.
Oh, I enjoyed that very much! 1001 drones...hard to imagine how you did this. Thank you. ⭐️
Well, this was much better than fireworks! The whole idea with a radio show and drones is just fantastic, great way to get people to come together.
Thank you so much for putting this up on RUclips. I've been really ill during this holiday season and am slowly recovering. I had heard about this and wanted to go see it, but fate had other plans unfortunately. I love it absolutely love it! 😍 I hope next year or perhaps this 4th of July you will have another show such as this and I get to attend it. Bravo!!
Beautiful! This is the third millenium I was waiting for. Thx for making this happen!
Wow and wow! Being flown through the drones on a drone was stunning….cheers from New Zealand. 🐑🐑🇳🇿🇳🇿NZ
This is fascinating. How can people say it's boring lol. Appreciate the efforts and skills went into this. This is just the beginning. It's slow now but can't wait to see the differences years from now.
Absolutely incredible! The most impressive Christmas display I've ever seen!
Watch the stranger things Metallica drone show that some guy did at his house! Blows this one way out the water
Spectacular show, Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.
That was stunning. Loved it.
Saw some drones perform for the first time last month, and I was really blown away by how cool it was!
I think a small fireworks show combined with a huge drone show would be the perfect combination for a fantastic celebration of New Years or the 4th of July. Saw my 1st drone show at the Garth Brooks concert in Missouri this year and it was absolutely AMAZ-Z-Zing!!
This is by far the most amazing thing I have ever seen on RUclips
I’ve never seen a drone light show. This was incredible!♥️👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Thank you for the drone show!
AMAZING!!!
I love creative minds that do things for others enjoyment.
Fascinating beyond belief! Reminds me of the huge bird flocks over the fields in the fall. I imagine collision avoidance is most difficult.
Just wonderful. All the way around this was fantastic. Wow, just wow.
Pretty impressive. I love that there's no automated arming sequence, haha, but it must take a LOT of setup for each unique event but its very impressive and would be really spectacular to see in person.
I find the storyline where kids just go trespassing, then breaking and entering, then stealing someone's property a little strange, but the lightshow is really well coordinated.
Amazing technology, great work. Actually did the entire thing without mentioning what Christmas was about. Amazing.
So many drones! the story made me cry :')
Absolutely amazing bravo! I hope you continue this every year what a great tradition
While it is pretty cool, this is scary as hell. This will and is becoming an extremely effective weapon system and to think you can control thousands of these with software at the individual drone level and the totality should alarm everyone.
A timeless message shown through amazing technology! Thank you so much Sky Elements!
Would love to read a short, not too technical story about how the drone programming was done. Also, the brand, make, and model of the drones, and the cost for each drone. Should have been a million more cars parked/people watching, too.
4:34 The FPV angle is amazing.
Honestly, the tripods should be replaced by some sort of moving orbiting FPV that is wide-shot or an Insta-360 mounted in the drones so we can all use RUclips's 360 feature using our phone accelerometers.
The FPV pilot doing that dive through the tunnel. incredible
It amazes me what good can come from new and emerging technologies these days. Keep up the great work inspiring others for good!
Imagine traveling back in time and showing people this. Magic by golly
I was just going to suggest that something like this could be used to make some pretty scary UFO-type encounters even today!
Imagine taking this video back and showing it in 2002. This technology is out of this world.
Whow, how great that is. Stunning, I have never seen anything like this. Much more impressive than any firework. Great job.
I hope you guys start to tour around Christmas time and come to Connecticut next year. Simply amazing
Congratulations to the makers of such nice show, much better than fireworks, greetings from Remi from Belgium
Wow this is magical! Thank you for all the effort put into this! Amazing indeed!!!
What a REMARKABLE show!!! Thank you for sharing this technological wizardry with us!! GREAT JOB!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Stunning show! Imagine how much better these will be when people learn to turn off the overhead lights in that parking lot!
I imagine there must be some custom software that emulates the show and lets you keyframe drones one-by-one or in groups like video editing software. SO COOL!
TECHNOLOGY, ART AND HEART
It's amazing how this art form is evolving...
Absolutely amazing. I never saw anything like this before in my life. Well Done, Well Done.
AWESOME. Great story and visuals. Thnak you for sharing.
WOW! Fireworks shows are now obsolete!
FANTASTIC!👍
Hats off to the camera drone pilot! 👍
Get rid of smelly and noisy fireworks and have drones like this for holiday show! AWESOME!!!
That is better than any fireworks. Great Show!
I’m having a bad case of the shivers. Thank you for creating so much beauty in the sky and broadcasting such a wonderful story to accompany the largest show of drones! You rock!
It’s spectacular!
Imagine what 10,000 drones can do 😳
The fact that it's above a parking lot and people watch in from their cars is the most American thing ever.
That's the first drone show I've ever seem...quite amazing
Stunning.
Truly a work of art and technology, awesome!!
Wow, so many amazing effects, Super impressive, thank you for sharing this with all of us!
WOW SO BEAUTIFUL , MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY NEW YEAR
Einfach nur MEGE GEIL, danke für so einen tollen Moment 👍👍👍
This is so beautiful, peaceful and magical. Fireworks are just obnoxious and dangerous. I'm grateful to live in a world where we have drone shows.
Imagine all the possibilities, spectacular
We are witnessing the birth of sky cinema. One day soon, we'll be watching entire movies coming to life in the sky.
