'Blink and you'll miss it': World record firework display fails after all 110,000 go off at once (http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1208101/Blink-youll-miss-World-record-firework-display-fails-set-Bournemouth-alight.html)

'I felt so sorry for the organisers because it was obvious everything went off in one hit.
'It was a big silvery spray which lit up the beach and then there was just a big cloud of smoke and a few squiggly, short rockets that went up randomly from the fire.
'There had been such a build up, everyone held their breath with anticipation for this roar but then there was nothing.
'Never mind under 60 seconds, more like six seconds. It was a bit of a damp squib.'
'It went off quicker than they thought it would due to the wind and weather conditions. It didn't meet everybody's expectations which is unfortunate but we did break the record which is absolutely fantastic.
Kind of fits the "too much too soon" and the "don't listen to the angry masses, just trust me" themes of this presidency.
