The company Parente Fireworks who were part of the Kuwait Fireworks Guinness World Record have uploaded two “making of” videos onto YouTube. The first video on top contains some behind the scene shots including ones from the control room during the event. The video below on the other hand summarizes that actual fireworks event down to around 5 minutes.

No clue what it was about. [YouTube]

Since we’re on the subject of violence, there was another stabbing at Avenues as well this past Friday. [Link]

I promise this will be the last post related to the fireworks show but I really have to share this video. It’s the fireworks show shot from the perspective of the kite flyers who took part in the event. I swear one scene reminded me of the movie Apocalypse Now. [YouTube]

Kuwait 50 – Fireworks Day – HD from YAHYA ALREFAEI on Vimeo.

What I loved about this video is the fact it revolves around the human emotions during the fireworks show and not the actual fireworks.

You can watch the first half of the show in the video above and the second half below. Both videos taken from KTV1.

I think TJC Films has been releasing on average a video a week which is just crazy. This week he released a video of En Mexico, a small Mexican restaurant located in Jabriya which I posted about early in the year. Makes me hungry. You can watch the video above or on [YouTube]

The Kuwait Science Club sent a Kuwaiti flag into space using a weather balloon. They recorded the whole thing with a GoPro camera and you can watch the footage above. [YouTube]

Thanks Anes

Yousef is a 17 year old Kuwaiti kid with a thing for backflips. He went around Kuwait and shot clips of himself backflipping in front of different landmarks and inside different places with the idea to show Kuwait in a different way.

He makes backflipping look so easy. [YouTube]

I had no idea who Emmy was until a reader emailed me telling me about her. Emmymade in Japan is a YouTube channel where Emmy usually reviews different kind of candies (mostly from Japan) while eating them in front of the camera. Well it seems she has some Kuwaiti viewers because someone from Kuwait sent her a box full of treats all the way to Japan. It’s really fun watching her trying to figure out what everything is.

Thanks Teeba

Exit is a short film that revolves around a Ministry building in Kuwait. It’s really not that great a video but I really liked the idea of a bored employee making a film at his workplace. [Vimeo]

I was watching the video Falcon Eye on Q8 All in One when it reminded me of the video above called Earthflight. If you haven’t watched it before you should. [YouTube]

Note: Those are real birds and not 3D animations

No idea why the guy was driving on the emergency lane in the first place when the left lane was free of traffic. [YouTube]

This is another angle of the fire that took place near Marina Mall which I posted about two days back. This video of the fire was taken from a tenant living in the building right above the fire. [YouTube]

Thanks Abdulrahman

Palm trees next to a building near Marina Mall caught fire in the morning, Some of the cars were burnt as a result. Kuwait fire department was quick to douse the fire, small video from the incident (I guess no one was injured in the incident)

Happened earlier today. [YouTube]
