You guys landed on 25L. The 4th of July is legitimately a 360 degree wall of SOUND. Non stop explosions. Knowing that they're fireworks, and people are celebrating is what makes it very cool. :) This goes on looooong into the night, and into the next few days. I was wondering what it looked like from the air. Thank you for posting this.
This has got to be the best LAX landing video! I’ve seen far too many- and posted a few on my channel. This one is absolutely amazing - thanks for posting this- it’s gonna get tons of views.
Exactly what I was looking for. We were driving down the 710 to Long Beach from the Dodger game and it was like World War. So much for an illegal firework ban. Explosions over the freeway the whole trip. Wild! Your video really brings it into perspective.
If you're impressed by this, you should look up LA fireworks from helicopters during the covid lockdown. There were at least 2x as many everywhere, even though there were supposed to be none. lol. It was insane.
Great job Brian! My roomie and I were talking about LAX approach on the 4th and here you did it. An extra thanks for 4K HDR. Looked great on the TV. Loved how it kept building as you went further west and showing SoFi helped final orientation, downtown did too. Joe
Thanks so much for sharing this. Always wondered what it would look like flying over a major city on 4th of July night. I wonder what it would look like from space or the ISS. haha Great work here. Thanks again. Lifted my spirits.
I live in the LA area. Anything that goes into the air is not only illegal to buy and sell and subject to a fine, but also expensive. Think like $50 to $100 a pop. Some of my neighbors couldn't understand how others could afford it with the price of things this year. It was somewhat subdued compared to other years... But it is always awesome
They ain't shopping in the right places then. If you buy them from someone selling them in Cali, then yeah, you might get jipped. But a little drive to Nevada or Arizona, and you'll find tons of these for cheap. Probably get about 10 to15 cakes for under 200 depending on how you budget.
That opening scene was supposedly inspired by the refineries in Carson a bit south along the 405 freeway. Methane(?) flames burning from elevated pipes, for example.
Those bright flashes are titanium salutes, the ones you feel in your chest at the fireworks show. Even where consumer fireworks are legal, those are not, entirely different classification of explosives which requires a license to purchase. Definitely a healthy black market.
All that "thin, low cloud" you can see is actually smoke from fireworks. Yes it hangs around for days. Yes you can smell it for days, yes it messes your health up for days (especially if you have allergies anyway). Ask me how I know.
Hate to say it, but most of those folks take advantage of any excuse to blow stuff up. It's August 8, and it still sounds like a war zone here every weekend. The police don't even both to follow up anymore.
HAHA! The twist: this is actually footage of any given night on the streets of LA! JK. This is very cool to see and I’m glad these folks are out celebrating and having a good time. Hope they were safe about it. Probably not worth the wildfire risk, but what are you going to do?
Watching ILLEGAL fireworks is not something I’d boast about proudly. Those were ALL done in neighborhoods-where small animals are terrified by the noise, often to the point of DEATH (Chihuahuas in particular!). Many neighborhood fires often START due to irresponsible idiots using fireworks bought in Tijuana and brought into the States illegally or on the dark web from China. I had a neighbor who bragged about burning down a "bad neighborhood," during his use of illegal fireworks outside OUR properties! And here he was doing it again and claiming he caused a fire that killed several small dogs and almost one cat-thank G-d THAT neighbor was home and grabbed his child and their family kitty, Ozzy, a 17-year old beloved boy by the whole now demolished neighborhood. So please take this video down in respect of the firefighters who work hard to SAVE properties like those below, sometimes totally DEMOLISHED by irresponsible knotheads!
I wondered for years what this would look like! Great filming!!
Thanks!
Same, way more impressive than I ever imagined.

Thanks for posting this. Really shows how everything looks from high up
I love how you can easily tell the residential areas apart from the commercial/industrial areas based on where the fireworks are going off.
This has got to be the best LAX landing video! I’ve seen far too many- and posted a few on my channel. This one is absolutely amazing - thanks for posting this- it’s gonna get tons of views.
this is very scare, my cat is sad
Absolutely beautiful. Night flying at its best! I'm so happy you got to experience this. Thanks for sharing and let's hope this goes viral for you.

Even more impressive considering that fireworks are illegal in Los Angeles, unless at designated fireworks shows.

@@-108- I just looked it up, wow that's insane.
Wowww. This was awesome. The whole freaking city is lit with fireworks. I loved it. Thank you for sharing and happy 4th of July.
You’re welcome. And happy (belated) 4th!

That looks like a green laser flash @0:13 top right quadrant of the video?
Yeah I seen that as well , they had them on target 😂😂😂
Wow that looks so awesome!
This video was very cool!!! Thank you!
Really GREAT video! Excellent photography landing at night and the bonus fireworks show! Well done!
Thank you!
Your pilots just logged combat hours
Wow this video just got suggesting to me and wow what a cool, awsome video that is with fireworks going of in every neighborhood.
The layer of fireworks smoke over the city is actually rather scary. Fine video.
Freaking awesome thank you for sharing Happy July 4th!!
You’re welcome!
This is a great video.
Thanks. I wondered how it looked up above my apt. WOW!! BECAUSE IF YOU COULD HEAR IT!!! IT SOUNDED LIKE A WAR!! WAY CCOL!!
FANTASTIC VIDEO!
Thanks for uploading this!
You’re welcome!

I just sat absolutely transfixed and catatonic watching this video. Simply outstanding!!!
I was actually thinking how they would look in a plane. Very cool video!
Very cool video, the haze from the fireworks made the flashes look like rhunderstorms
July 4, 2012 I was landing in Richmond, VA and I saw some fireworks there too.
I live in the LA area. Anything that goes into the air is not only illegal to buy and sell and subject to a fine, but also expensive. Think like $50 to $100 a pop.

Hey. I could see the Air Canada Air Plane ✈️ from your window in your video.
July 4th on Independence Day is my grandma Laura Geraldine Burke's Birthday!
You can tell where the Mexican neighborhoods are 🎆
Yeah, just by looking out the window over southern ca., in any direction.
Super cool! Amazing
All the bright flashes tword the end are titanium salutes.
Kinda got a dystopia retro1982 film blade runner beginning movie credits vibe from this.

@zamar2158, my dad and I have the same color circle like yours.
Cool video man!
Damn that’s pretty freaking awesome man

smog too on other days.
the summer heat causes an inversion, trapping smog under a warm layer of air.
Got better as the plane got lower cool!
Look all those patriots!!!! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
The deep-blue Greater LA area isn't what MAGA thinks.

My town was one of the only ones that had zero fireworks. lol
feels like blade runner all of a sudden
I'd be curious to know at about what time that evening that this was recorded.
Haha. Woooooooooooooo! 🤩
That was really cool. I like how there's more going off in the hood than in Bel-Air.
Thanks for posting!
that was people's response to the city councils decision to Ban fireworks in the city 😅
Cool video but didn't see many of the professional displays. Or else they simply aren't that visible from 5,000.- 10,000 feet agl?
10:15 Wow, that one was at about the same altitude as the plane.
Unbelievable 😮
You can tell the difference when you get to the Inglewood Lenox Hawthorne area 😂
Wooow!!!
What type of 737 max is that?
Looks like Detroit or Chicago on Saturday night....
Oh wow, that’s crazy! Like… I mean… wowzers!
is this sped up? why the fireworks go out so quick?
Where are you flying from?
I feel bad for anybody that had to work that day.
Some of those were getting kinda close!
Welcome to los Santos
bro that must be unreal
Nice. Time of landing?
We landed at 9:30pm.
What Aircraft is this
It’s United airlines. Boeing 737-800 or 737 Max 8/9
Yeah, not sure the aircraft, but it was United Airlines from BOS to LAX.
Thats look like 737 MAX because the winglet
I miss plane rides for the announcements after landing....😅 well over due fer1
That's why I love L.A., they know how to party!
South LA don't mess around on 4th of July 😂
10:00 At this point, the pilots must IFR into LAX due to smoke accumulating from fireworks.
Applause. 😶. Respectively. Tanika Nakeya Lewis, 6127
End of fight club be like
I thought this was Detroit 🔫 💥 😂
Na libertadores do Corinthians em 2012 os fogos cobriram a cidade de São Paulo
i can only imagine what the aliens who are watching us from light years away are thinking while watching earth specifically the US on 4th of july
Those aren’t fireworks! 💀💀😵💫😵💫😵💫
