South African Jos Stiglingh flew his DJI Phantom 2 drone into the midst of a West Palm Beach, Florida fireworks display in May, and the resulting footage is stunning.Set to a dramatic Andrea Bocelli aria, the footage shows fireworks exploding sometimes right next to the UAS.
However, the video has been condemned by critics, who point out that flying a drone into fireworks is not only unsafe, it’s illegal.
During fireworks displays, authorities establish no-fly safety zones to protect the public.
