11 BIGGEST AND BEST FIREWORKS DISPLAYS AROUND THE WORLD
BURJ KHALIFA
What better place to hold a fireworks show than on the tallest building in the world? The Burj Khalifa Tower held an incredible fireworks show at it's grand opening, and now holds shows on New Years Eve every year. Watching fireworks shoot off of the building going up and down is an incredible sight.
SYDNEY, AUSTRALIA
As one of the first cities around the world to enter the New Year, Sydney in Australia holds a huge fireworks display every year. Millions of people watch as fireworks go off above the Sydney Opera House, Harbor, and Bridge.
MONTREAL INTERNATIONAL FIREWORKS COMPETITION
A month long competition for fireworks, the Montreal International Fireworks Competition is the largest of it's kind in the world. Companies from around the globe bring their best 30 minute displays there to compete for the Jupiter award for best show.
THUNDER OVER LOUISVILLE
Thunder Over Louisville is the kick-off event for the Kentucky Derby Festival that lasts weeks in Louisville. According to their site, they use over 60 tons of fireworks to pack as much punch into a 28 minute show as they can. If you're a fan of false finales, this show sounds right for you.
PALM JUMEIRAH AND WORLD ISLANDS, DUBAI
Currently the Palm Jumeirah and World Islands hold the world record for biggest firework display. They had an awe-inspiring show, shooting off over 479,000 shells on the two artificial islands. They shot off all of these in just 6 minutes, a rate of over 1000 shells per second!
This show would definitely have been best viewed from a helicopter to showcase the cool designs of the islands.
POHANG INTERNATIONAL FIREWORKS FESTIVAL, SOUTH KOREA
This nine day festival features some of the most creative exhibitions of fireworks in the world. Not only do you get to see fireworks here, you can also partake in watersports, a badminton tournament, song and dance performances, a sandcastle competition, and partake of other South Korean culture.
LONDON, ENGLAND
Every year London hosts an impressive New Years firework display near Big Ben with fireworks coming off of the famous London Eye ferris wheel, but recently they have taken it to the next level. They had the world's first multi-sensory fireworks show, with certain periods of colored fireworks being matched with clouds of flavored confetti, such as strawberry or banana.
TAIPEI 101
The Taipei 101 tower in Taiwan boasts a firework display every New Year that rivals the Burj Khalifa, perhaps only considered lesser because the Burj Khalifa is a bit taller. The tiers of the building work perfectly as launch pads for huge volleys of bright fireworks.
BEIJING OLYMPICS
The opening ceremony of the 2008 Beijing Olympics had one of the greatest firework displays ever. The ceremony held in the famous "bird nest" stadium had a grand show of fireworks that included unique 'footprint' fireworks.
KATAKAI FIREWORKS FESTIVAL, JAPAN
The Katakai Festival in Japan is shorter than the other festivals, lasting only one day, but boasts a 3 hour long show. Japan also is the home of the world's largest single firework, a massive 992 pound shell that flies up a kilometer before exploding into an 800 meter across bloom.
PARIS, FRANCE
Seeing the Eiffel Tower lit up with fireworks all around is definitely an amazing sight. Perhaps not the biggest or most impressive set of fireworks compared to some others, just seeing a show next to such an iconic landmark is a great experience.

This site provides links to random videos hosted at YouTube, with the emphasis on random. π₯
Origins of the Idea π±
The original idea for this site stemmed from the need to benchmark the popularity of a video against the general population of YouTube videos. π§
Challenges Faced π€
Obtaining a large sample of videos was crucial for accurate ranking, but YouTube lacks a direct method to gather random video IDs.
Even searching for random strings on YouTube doesn't yield truly random results, complicating the process further. π
Creating Truly Random Links π οΈ
The YouTube API offers additional functions enabling the discovery of more random videos. Through inventive techniques and a touch of space-time manipulation, we've achieved a process yielding nearly 100% random links to YouTube videos.
About YouTube πΊ
YouTube, an American video-sharing website based in San Bruno, California, offers a diverse range of user-generated and corporate media content. π
Content and Users π΅
Users can upload, view, rate, share, and comment on videos, with content spanning video clips, music videos, live streams, and more.
While most content is uploaded by individuals, media corporations like CBS and the BBC also contribute. Unregistered users can watch videos, while registered users enjoy additional privileges such as uploading unlimited videos and adding comments.
Monetization and Impact π€
YouTube and creators earn revenue through Google AdSense, with most videos free to view. Premium channels and subscription services like YouTube Music and YouTube Premium offer ad-free streaming.
As of February 2017, over 400 hours of content were uploaded to YouTube every minute, with the site ranking as the second-most popular globally. By May 2019, this figure exceeded 500 hours per minute. π
