Amazing Drone Show - Was It Real!?

A recent drone show seemed to show off pyrotechnics with very rapid moving drone swarm. However, with closer scrutiny, it is apparent that the drone show is indeed a fake display of video editing.

I watched the Shanghai drone show to see the dragon. The show was ok, but it didn’t have this dragon 😂

There are people who gather by the riverbank and wait to see the show in person.
Nothing! While they can see the show in real time on their cell phone, in real life there's nothing.

Why wouldn’t a Chinese drone show be fake? Everything else they make is!

It would be much easier to fly a bunch of drones into the air into a 2D plane and use each one like a pixel. That way they don't have to move around

🤣 THE FUTURE... IS A THING OF THE PAST.

the dragon is real but it wasn’t in shanghai the background is edited in

Both these drones the circular and the dragon really happened.

Not gonna lie... When I first saw this I just assumed the ships on the water must have launched those particular fireworks up and the rest was just an above average drone show.. The first clip I saw of this was only a few short seconds. Fake, eh par for the course far as China stunts lol

The Sydney Drone Show was real, and very cool!

imagine instead of lights they have armaments, got a feeling in the near future we would see this swarm drone tech in war, which already proven in Ukraine war individually piloted drone is devastating how about a swarm.

It's partly real, but this video clip is edited. The circular firework and drone (like UFO) is from a theme park show in Joyland Changzhou called 'the Time Portal', and the dragon drone show is a clip from Shenzhen, displayed for Dragon Boat Festval, and the background is Shanghai, Huangpu River, which did not held any shows in recemnt years.
