    thank you whoever took this footage. it's fabulous! i was working perimeter so i was up very close to the actual explosions. that was amazing in itself, but i didn't get the full view of how all the pyro worked until i saw this. GREAT PYRO!

    what you can't see: our astronaut flailing around, escaping the burning rocket, bursting into pyro flame, so awesome.

    worst, most boring and disappointing part at burning man! waiting for a shitrocket to start for more than 2,5 hours - and then it's just about fireworks and didn't take of just one inch.

    thanks dor sharing. now i know that i left for good and didn't miss out on anything

    looks like Michelle Fennel is not a fan of massive pyrotechnics. ah well. waiting for hours due to Playa winds does get people cranky --- and is never the fault of whoever is putting on a pyro show, sending in flaming parachuters, or burning a piece of art.

    @tiffany lee brown - i think michelle is being sarcastically ironic for comedic effect ;)

    @mike - oh good! i have heard taht comment in real life, though, from people who actually meant it. "your fucking rocket didn't launch!! i sat there for 2+ hours! you guys suck!"

    no lie.

    guess i have to have my sarcasm meter checked. i'll take it in for a full tuneup.

    it's BURNINGMAN, not fireworksMAN! at least there were some liquid propane explosions in the mix. how come participants can't use fireworks? safety or MOOP? they can MOOP and we can't? Crude Awakening=true pyro. nothing against the rocketship itself, beautiful fabrication. i just think we can get amazing fireworks at disneyland, the playa is for something more regarding pyro... this goes for burning the man as well... glenn
