Glad you guys/gals enjoyed....I got a big 'buzz' out of watching - went straight back to watch again.

Love the excitement and the excited voices shouting out instructions in the background!.....love the crowds verbal reaction at the very end too LOL

Where is that taken ?

India ?

Malaysia ?

Pakistan ?

One of the reasons i laughed is it reminded me of a car engine that I managed to send 400 metres vertically into the sky.

I had placed a fairly large amount of explosive in the engine bay of this wreck. We watched it from a nearby hill and this

car engine just took off vertically with white smoke trailing behind. It was impressive.

They guys in this video did every well, it flew straight, the parachute deployment was a surprise and very well done.

I thought India.....but the language does not sound Indian, perhaps Pakistan?.....I initially thought Malaysia but the signage text seems more Indian/Pakistani.

Anyone know pls?

Blowing up car engines aps!! I have always been afraid of explosives since childhood fireworks nights in UK taught me respect for anything that could 'spark' or go 'BOOM!'

That makes two of us (UK, fireworks) and the guy who trained me was very strict, which is why I always chuckle

when people get a Darwin award for "playing" with them

Just watched the video again, a great way to start the day

Listening to the voices, and seeing the spiralling smoke that reminded me immediately thought "Siam". Thailand or regions thereabouts.

Thanks paints. Such pure, simple, dangerous fun.
