British inventor creates 'Fire tornado firework launcher'
Published in Weird News
DOVER, England (UPI) -- British inventor and YouTube star Colin Furze created a device to launch fireworks using a massive cylinder of fire.
Furze built the 20-foot tall "Fire Tornado Firework Launcher" or giant, spiny, cagey, turny, fiery thing, as he called it in the video, to celebrate his YouTube channel surpassing 4 million subscribers.
The large contraption featured a metal cage containing a fire pit, which rested on a wooden platform with wheels underneath to allow the flames to twist into a massive fire "tornado."
Furze and a friend then loaded a bundle of fireworks into a small compartment in the steel cage and used the swirling flames to set off the colorful explosives.
The fire ultimately sent the fireworks spinning in all directions, creating a dazzling spectacle of lights both in the sky and the area surrounding the cylinder.
When the experiment was complete, Furze triumphantly pumped his fist while looking toward his next milestone of 5 million subscribers.
