Thailand's mysterious Fireball Festival on the Mekong River
Is it science or divine intervention?….Darren attempts to shed some light on the age old Naga Fireball mystery, at the enormously popular 4 day Phayanak Fireball Festival in Bueng Kan North East Thailand
Why are ALL the videos on this phenomenon fucking terrible? Jesus christ, can we get ONE clear fucking video of this, with a decent camera, without all the extra bullshit. Is this really too much to ask?
From all the videos I've seen on this i am pretty sure the "fireballs" are tracer rounds being shot into the air from the Laos shore by soldiers or whatever. If the Thais wouldn't be so noicy and screaming everytime it happens you would probably be hearing the faint bangs shortly after seeing the lights.
I'm British, I was very sceptical, but the fireballs came out of the water and floated towards me or along the Mekong as if they were alive. I came away very puzzled as to how these balls of fire could be manipulated to move around in mysterious ways. 20 years later, I'm equally puzzled. Had the fireballs gone straight up, I would know they were a show. But they moved like they were alive. Almost like birds???

Why all the fireworks when people are wanting to see the mysterious lights coming from the water!
They want to be sure to confuse the others there so just when you think you saw a fireball someone in the crowd said oh that was just a firework.
At what time mark in the video does it show the actual fireballs?

why did you name the video about the lights but didn't show shit, you suck
this was a waste of my time I didn't see shit
So, if all the bottle rockets were intended to camouflage these fireballs, they've been a rollicking success.
Lol those are tracing AA rounds, any MIL here?
so where are the lights? What a waste off time watching this vid…more bull!
I don't know about you guys but…..I didn't see any "Fireballs" come out of the water!

This is fireworks from devils hiding in the river who are happy with this polytheism….from betrayed people….sure….
