This year's 62-inch firework shell weighs over 2,500 pounds and is currently buried beneath the surface of a mountain in Steamboat Springs, Colorado. Explosives will propel the firework out of the ground at 300 mph.
After a failed 2019 attempt, four Colorado men plan to break the world record for the largest firework this weekend.
This year's 62-inch firework shell weighs over 2,500 pounds and is currently buried beneath the surface of a mountain in Steamboat Springs, Colorado.

They used data from the smaller fireworks to plan last year's record-breaking attempt, which exploded too early. "When you think of it on the physics level, to get a ton of anything up in the air with one explosion takes quite a bit of thinking," Borden said.
