I love fireworks. Fireworks have the same magical power as roller coasters to instantly make me a child again. It's that feeling of giddy wonder, of marvelling at the ingenious lengths man will go to for no reason other than pleasure. Plus there's a delicious tingle of fear on top. British adults of my generation have seen enough episodes of 999 to know that fireworks are no f*ing joke.

In honour of Bonfire Night, here, for your viewing pleasure, is the best fireworks display in the history of the world. You might have seen it before, but you can never, ever see it too many times. It's what happens when you accidentally condense a 30-minute fireworks display into 50 deafening seconds.

Enjoy.
