"I am attracted to everything that shines in the night": he will set off the fireworks on the Meilhan bridge

It was only natural that he would be the man for the job to fire, in the evening, on the bridge, and from the Hure road, the fireworks announced as "abundant, crackling and focused on color," for a dozen minutes from his dashboard, like a sound engineer. "It will require around thirty kilos of powder. That's double the quantity for a village fire."

The man is firing criticism at the polluting side of the products used to "put on" the show. "The standards have changed and so have the products. Now, from strollers to canes, it remains the most popular show in France," assures the man who travels to fireworks festivals across France.
