Biggest fireworks display of all time (Guinness World Records 2012)

For the paltry sum of just £10million Kuwait earned a place in the Guinness Book of Records last night as it celebrated the golden jubilee anniversary of its constitution in style by laying on the biggest fireworks display of all time. A dazzling array of colours illuminated the skies above the country's capital of Kuwait City as a staggering 77,282 fireworks were launched over the period of an hour. A representative of Guinness World Records announced the achievement on Kuwait television at the end of the display which had been watched by tens of thousands of Kuwaitis and expatriates on the Arabian Gulf Road by the sea. The visual presentation marked 50 years to the day since the late emir Sheikh Abdullah al-Salem al-Sabah announced that Kuwait had become the first Arab state in the Gulf to issue a constitution and have a parliament. Before the festivities Emir Sheikh Sabah al-Ahmad al-Sabah pledged the government's continuing commitment to democracy and made a plea for national unity as the wealthy Gulf state struggles with a political crisis.

1. How DARE Muslims enjoy themselves, it's unislamic.......
2. what happened to Thunder Over Louisville ? it's the largest anual display in North America
3. Yes we get it. Spectacular, big, colorful, grand, etc. Geniuses behind the whole production...(and probably foreign companies, by the way). Regardless, it's a shame that this kind of wealth is not invested in more human causes for the betterment of the world, for the revival of the old leading arabic civilization, especially as the Middle East continues to spiral down into more war, unrest, and degradation of civilization....for the benefit of extravagance and outdated royalty and unacceptable human values by any standard. Sad, truly sad. May God give them the ability to see this waste, and the wisdom to use their wealth more responsibly, and for a higher purpose
