YouTube's Best Lake Hopatcong Fireworks Video
There's actually a large selection. But this one looks like a scene from "Independence Day."
Fact: Fireworks are better in person.
Also fact: Sometimes they're almost as good on video, especially when they look like they're being launched from an alien spaceship.
That's the case with this YouTube clip. It capures Lake Hopatcong's grand finale, which makes sense.

But what doesn't make sense—and what makes it awesome—is that it's shot sideways, giving it an "Independence Day" feel. Toward the end it's like high-top fade era Will Smith is about to walk out and say, "Who's the man?! HUH?! WHO'S THE MAN?!"
Happy Fourth of July!

Editor's note: It also kind of looks like Pocket Tanks. Anyone?
