Video: Here's What The Fireworks Looked Like While Illegally Riding Between Subway Cars
July 5, 2019, 9:57 a.m.
New Yorkers who were taking the subway over the Manhattan Bridge got the best view of the fireworks show. Some appreciated it more than others.
The view of the firewroks from the subway going across the Manahttan Bridge was the best view in town.
You could get a sweet spot for the annual fireworks by staking out some prime park real estate about 12 hours before the big show, or you could simply time your subway ride over the Manhattan Bridge to perfectly coincide with the spectacle.
A few lucky New Yorkers were treated to the best seat in the house as their train slowly made their way across the Manhattan Bridge on Thursday night as the Macy's Fireworks show was going on, and while some of them seemed a little too nonchalant about what was going on directly in front of them, one took the opportunity to another level. Someone positioned themselves between train cars for an even better view of the 'works. This is, of course, illegal and highly dangerous, so we do not recommend it, but daaammmnnnn:

It's unclear who shot the video, as it has now popped up in a few places uncredited, but the above tweet from DJ Ross One appears to be the original. He also put a little more on Instagram:
