I love the Olympics so really missed them this summer. However, I was delighted when my brother sent me a video of the fireworks that would have been displayed. Yes, it's a hoax. This was reportedly meant to be a fireworks display to mark the opening of the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games on July 23, but the quadrennial event was postponed until next summer due to the coronavirus pandemic.A video emerged with claims that “It would not have been safe to keep the explosives on the shelf until the Games eventually begin, so organizers in Tokyo decided to go ahead with the display.
However, fact-checking website Boom has uncovered the video is originally from 2015, and was created using a fireworks simulator website.
None the less, it’s just a lot of fun to look at, particularly when you see the same versions with different music being played.
