We can't see our house from here.

We can’t see our house from here.

Although filmed back in May, this particular piece of footage is only gaining popularity now and believe us when we say/type/shout-in-your-face-until-you-give-in-and-watch, you really do have to see this incredible video.

Uploaded by YouTuber Jos Stiglingh, the breathtaking footage was filmed as a (thankfully unharmed) DJI Phantom 2 drone, equipped with a GoPro Hero 3 Silver camera, flew directly through the brilliantly-colourful explosions of a nighttime firework display over West Palm Beach, Florida. Not that there’s any such thing as a daytime firework display mind you, because that would be entirely pointless.

The entire clip is also soundtracked with the dulcet tones of Andrea Bocelli singing ‘Time To Say Goodbye’, hence the reason we’re all bawling our eyes out here at JOE HQ. So grab your hankies, sit back and enjoy…
