Behold the Pyro Board: an array of 2500 flames created by Sune Nielsen, a Masters student in physics at Aarhus University in Denmark.

How it Works: As you can observe in the video, the board is an extension of the device known as a Rubens’ Tube.

Pressure variations caused by sound waves affect the flow rate of flammable gas in each of the holes in the Pyro Board. This leads to variations in the height and color of the flames.

The magic of the video happens around the 3:30 mark. Fire and music seem to be a very natural fit.

Around 100,000 people flock to enjoy the food, music, dancing, and of course, the amazing fireworks. As you can see above, the safety restrictions don’t seem to be too strict in these parts of Mexico, but it makes for some incredible pictures!  Thomas Prior from New York braved the madness last March and captured the incredible photographs you see above.

The main event of the festival seems especially striking — it features a “Running of the Bulls” in which 250 wooden bulls filled with fireworks run the streets shooting off explosions for a 7 hour finale.
