San Diego fireworks malfunction, explode all at once (Video)

July 6, 2012 | In: FAIL, Funny, Merica, Owned, Video

San Diego’s ‘Big Bay Boom’ fireworks show was supposed to last 15 minutes, but due to bad software exploded in less than 30 seconds. We’ve all had this problem.

I bet little kids thought it was the best fireworks show…ever!

Matt

Nick

That would have been perfect for my little kids.

This post was only for the innuendo I am guessing. It was pretty anticlimactic.

AJ_Buffalo

in-your-endo
iChive

Actually, it was pretty much only climactic.

Would have rather watched that than the planned show.

the innuendo was better than the actual post but still pretty funny that happened hopefully no one got hurt

60% of the time, it works every time.

San Diego… The premature ejaculator of fireworks displays.

Pretty sweet. Don't lie, everyone here has always wondered what it would look like if all the fireworks went off at once.

I used to work for Pyrotechnico, fireworks company out of New Orleans, and when shows didn''t go off correctly you were in deep shit. I cannot imagine the hell the blaster is taking on this one. Maybe he hated his job and that was his two week notice.

new castle, pa maybe? at least that's where the pyrotechnico i freelance with is based out of…and i'm in FL…

We are all glad you guys weighed in with your cool pyro old job knowledge base. I had a cat once so I am sure to comment every cat Saturday and fill people in about the ins and outs of cat ownership

Buzzin_Neon

sure thing man…no problem…and i look forward to your expertise on cats since i don't own any…

4everDistracted

Yes I too look forward to JayMack8's cat expertise, as for Pyrotechnico, they have bases all over the US (NJ, NH, LA, TX, PA are a few I know of).

Buzzin_Neon

yeah, there's a warehouse in st pete, fl too…that's where all of our product comes from…and they get their product from PA…or so i'm told…

Rick Pitino approves of this fireworks display.
suck me dry

all the way off is how far i would like you to suck me

no thanks

any chance you could come up with some new work?….no pressure.. just sucking you off doesn't seem to appeal to anyone here from what I can tell.

It was the electronics, not the software. Don't blame the programmers.

Happens to me all the time.

Whaaaaat, I just optimized the software. 15 minutes is too damn long!

In 5 years, I bet people will still remember the night San Diego blew up the whole sky. But how many people will remember the usual 18 mins firework show that happened in every other city?
TheSimonizer

Chive, why do you rip videos and upload them to your own player? Because of that, you are always 2-5 days late on viral videos… and I see no real legit benefice to that..

Ronald

Don't tell them how to do their job. They don't tell you how to make a Big Mac.

TheSimonizer

I'm not. I'm asking a question. I'm just wondering what are benifice. Why not just embed the video?

TheSemenizer

Because fuck you, that's why.

Because it makes the website look like it wasn't thrown together by some kid in his moms musty ass basement.

Afterwards, it laid there smoking, muttering "Gee, this has never happened to me before…"

My gf refers to sex with me as the bay fireworks, 15 minutes promised, 15 seconds in reality
Verbal_Kint

reminds me of the first time I had sex. For 15 seconds, it was awesome….

Gusto

Man, the first time I doubt I even lasted 15 seconds. But was the best feeling in my life.

Pwnapotamus

Not sure if fireworks going off, or oil rigs exploding.
