    OK, that would freak me out a bit, but I'd still have piece of mind to grab my camera.

    If that thing started forming over my house I'd be thinking of the "What's the best shot you ever missed" thread too, LOL.

    Yah, pretty bizarre stuff. It's basically for sure a rocket, though:

    I thought maybe it was Santa Claus messing with the time space continuum. He's experimenting with delivering gifts in a faster more efficient manner than just flying :^)

    Delivering gifts so quickly he goes back in time? That's a new spin on the whole "faster than light = move backwards in time" theory :).

    holy cow!
    the vid is very nice too! one can see the rocket's propulser stop after a while... the swirly spin effect is really beautiful... (so sad this is a weapon of mass effect in reality... yet fireworks can sometimes kill).
