That was pretty cool, Using the wheel was awesome. Must have been insanely hard for everyone setting that shit up.

That's some serious fireworks. The first 60 seconds were kinda meh, and I'm thinking, 'does everyone really just shut up and start watching these fireworks?' - - and then the ring went off, and my jaw dropped...beats my local 4th of July display by the truckloads. Well done London, well done.

Last time I was on it was when it opened, I was 3, so yeah it was pretty fucking huge to me then. Might not seem as big now but it's 135m up at the top.

Did they rent out the pods again this year?
Usually people can rent the pods out to watch the display but with all those fireworks I cant imagine they did.
