'Stunning footage taken during a Thai Rocket Festival shows a giant circular rocket taking flight. <br /><br />The gadget attains great height before starting its descent, regulated by a parachute. <br /><br />"The Rocket Festival is a ceremony traditionally practiced in various parts of Thailand," the filmer, Allan McAlpine told us. "The ceremony, held between April - June (depending on the area), typically includes music and competitive processions of floats, dancers, and musicians."<br /><br />"The Festival is widely known for staging special programs dedicated to Parade dance and Beautiful Bung Fai float."<br /><br />"While the rockets are generally referred to as 'Jaruat,' the massive black-powder bottle rockets are called Bang Fai skyrockets."<br /><br /><br />Name: Allan McAlpine<br />Location: Kutwa, Issan NE, Thailand'<br />WooGlobe Ref : WGA804293<br />For licensing and to use this video, please email licensing@wooglobe.com
