The Daily Tube review

Beijing spared no expense this weekend, kicking off the 2008 Summer Olympics with a huge opening cermony that included a fireworks display that used over 300,000 fireworks, costing $8000 per second. This video is actually of the full dress rehearsal from last week, but gives you an idea of how intense the display actually was.  (by Austin Keenan) Running Time: 4:56 Watch this video muted.
