On July 4, 2012, the "Big Bay Boom" fireworks display in San Diego became a viral sensation when all 7,000 fireworks exploded simultaneously in less than a minute. This massive premature discharge was caused by a computer malfunction due to a corrupted file in the firing program. Although no one was injured, the planned 18-minute show was over almost as soon as it began. Credit: Dan Roy | History In Pictures

O incidente com os fogos de artifício em San Diego, conhecido como "Big Bay Boom", em 4 de julho de 2012, acabou sendo tão impressionante quanto inesperado. Programado para ser um dos maiores espetáculos de fogos de artifício da cidade, com uma duração planejada de 18 minutos, o show foi abruptamente reduzido para cerca de 15 segundos devido a uma falha técnica no sistema de controle. Ao invés de uma sequência elaborada, todos os fogos de artifício foram disparados simultaneamente, resultando em

Songs / Music / Rap on Instagram: "In 2012, San Diego’s yearly Fourth of July fireworks event, called the Big Bay Boom, went hilariously wrong when a technical glitch caused all the fireworks to ignite at the same moment. What was supposed to be an 18-minute performance turned into a 30-second burst of light and noise over the bay. The sky flashed with an overwhelming blaze that shocked the thousands of viewers, who stood amazed as the show ended almost immediately. Credit: Dan Roy (danwroy) on
