This dude set-up 45,000 bottle rockets, and them lit them off…very sweet (for the 11 year old in me).
Parents, show your kids this video instead of fearing blown off limbs or 3rd degree burns.
Kids, watch the video and enjoy.
Check out these sweet re-makes of arcade classics such as Asteroids, Frogger, Space Invaders, and more.
How many quarters did I drop at Alligator Alley on these games? All of them, I think.
My best friend Bobby was the MASTER at Asteroids. He could play that game for hours, and often did, as a group of us would essentially “shield” him from the arcade owner, so the guy didn’t figure out that one of his games was tied up all afternoon on a single quarter.

From cnn.com: Competitive gaming trying to earn a berth in the Olympics
A mouse, keyboard and/or Xbox controller don’t seem like the standard gear of an Olympic athlete, but Ted Owen wants to change that.
Owen, who runs the Global Gaming League (GGL), a media company focused on the lifestyle and culture of gaming, is currently talking with the Chinese government in hopes of bringing competitive video gaming to the 2008 Games as a demonstration sport.
“If the IOC pushed back on us and we had the Chinese government approving us, we would do it anyway,” he said. “We may not have the circles, but we’d do it right by the stadiums and would bask in the glow of the Olympic light. … Everyone wants to watch the best at anything … and it’s time to let people see the best this field has to offer.”
Hey, no, it won’t happen. The closest you’ll an Xbox or PS2 to an Olympic venue is in the wireless lounge at the Beijing airport.
