Masterblasters: Fireworks!

on BBC Two England

Continuing the new series that chronicles the spectacular feats of the world's explosive experts.

This film goes back to October last year, when the denizens of Houston, Texas, were promised the most sensational fireworks display ever staged. A million people were present to watch the extravaganza, in which chief exploder Eric Tucker hoped to launch 20,000 shells from atop the city's tallest skyscrapers in a show that was to be visible from space. Narrated by Bill Paterson.
