There have been some other time-lapse videos of the LA fires, but this is the best I’ve seen. Not a gadget, but it’s thanks to a gadget-savvy population (you guys) that as something like this is happening, we get it in real time, writing, radio, news, and in an artistically-inclined format like this.

makes the lungs scream!
And all the broadcast towers that spewed blasphemy, profanity and vulgarity night and day will maybe get burned up. How fitting. How overdue,
wow, i dont really think i ever appreciated the enormity of those fires before.
but on a lighter note, made me think of the clown made out of the huge cloud from the atomic bomb =P haha
sick americans!
That’s a pretty amazing video. The time lapse effect certainly adds a certain scale to the thing that is not apparent just watching it in real time – you can really sense the volume of material being burned.
Yeah it actually looks like a sort of fountain doesn’t it? you get a sense of the liquid dynamics of particulates in air.
it sucks that 2firefighters lost their life but blame the idiots who started to build houses where they should have never even touched so because of the stupid houses and since they need electricity they need the wires and with winds they knock them down and it starts a spark and there the state spends more the $6,000 for fighting the fire and when the state has no money. so their houses burn thats because the bought it there either cuss they are cheap or they were unlucky and no houses where avaiable those people i feel sorry for, not cheap people so whatever if disagree with me look back most socal fires start on mountains wheter because of humans smoking or kids screwing around with fire like fireworks only a couple times do fires start on flat land that happens mostly because of lighting strikes or sparks from electrictiy pole wires
do yourself a favor, go back to school and learn english properly this time.
Reminds me of:
What concerns TV is not the horror of the atom bomb but the amazing picture of it. Ed Murrow
