The video, uploaded by Russian YouTuber SlivkiShow, shows what happens when he sets 10,000 sparklers ablaze at once.

The result, as you might expect, is pretty awesome, and he even attaches a GoPro camera to a long pole to get a good overhead view.

Though all three minutes of the video are in Russian, English subtitles explain each step of the process.

The most impressive part of the video is undoubtedly the spectacular visual result. But the YouTuber warns, "All that is shown in this video is very dangerous. It is forbidden to repeat, but you can enjoy it."

The video has been viewed more than 6 million times.
