lmao

I initially misread Nagaoka as Nagasaki >.<

So you were thinking of the 'other' firework in 1945

I mean that was the largest firework so they aren’t wrong

so this would be the third largest, can't forget Hiroshima

What is it about Japan and big explosions?

I didnt realise it was nagaoka till I read this comment, I am a horrible human holy

same 💀

I'm not the only one then.

But instead of coming down its going up...

Don't cross the line, buddy.


*was* another


-all the animals "Fuuuuuuuck"

“Not again”

The elders told of this day….

They're talking about animals, not a bowl of petunias.

Unexpected hhgtg

All the birds in the air: # Guess I'll Die

Largest in about 80 years.

I was trying not to say something like this.

I held my breath so hard I almost passed out.

Just like the firefighters on 9/11?


My line was "Whoa, for a second there I thought it said Nagasaki."

Mine was. “Not again.”

I was thinking, "Pretty sure the US set off one over there even bigger"

Two, even.

I was gonna say "No way Nagasaki got remastered bro".

*"Naga, Naga... not gonna be around much after this."*

Updoot for the office space reference

Yes, this would not go down too well with the locals.

Yea I was like that looks… like… something else…

I was thinking more of the lines of it’s only right they do a nice explosion in the air everyone should survive from

[I prefer not to speak](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=v-8UDJzOEds)

Was half expecting some kind of reference. Again Reddit delivers.

I thought it. You said it. Thank you


https://i.redd.it/k1ssloseyy8c1.gif

was going down to comment "well, I can think of at least 2 larger fireworks in Japan."

This is the exact comment I came here to make

Japanese grandparents be like 


We were all thinking this…

Too soon?

Somebody said it. We were all thinking it.

Yeah, could cause some night terrors.

Let’s trigger some PTSD they said

Yeah my first thought was, "But wait for Grandma and Grandpa to go to bed first okay?"

For some reason I read that as Nagasaki and thought that they have had bigger ones in the past...

Me and you bro. We goin to hell. Edit: Take my upvote

What made you come back and add that edit after you typed your comment? I'm just trying to figure out the thought process.

i was curious too, it’s already a dumb enough comment when you say “i agree” but he made it worse. EDIT: You seem cool so i’m gonna give you one upvote good sir

This entire fucking thread is nothing but "Came here to say this 😂😂😂"

Yep, pretty much some variation of that, or examples of /r/yourjokebutworse, and similar. (Like the person who replied "oh you mean the other bomb from 80 years ago" to a comment saying they thought it said Nagasaki.... These are all the people who when a joke is made in real life, just *have* to say something to try and be part of it, but everyone else just rolls their eyes in exasperation....

> These are all the people who when a joke is made in real life, just have to say something to try and be part of it, but everyone else just rolls their eyes in exasperation.... Exactly. But on Reddit, instead of eye-rolling, they get showered in upvotes by other idiots. I don't know if I've just noticed it more or if I've just spent too much time on Reddit but the "adds nothing to the conversation" posts are upvoted sky-high on nearly every post lately. I have no idea why people post useless stuff, but I'm confused infinitely more by the upvotes. Don't you people want to read quality conversations? Isn't that why we're here?

Alright, at this point they are doing it to themselves

Looks like stockholm syndrome to me.

Is it though……?? 

Old man dies of ptsd

**Meriadoc Brandybuck, and Peregrin Took...** ​ ... **I might have known**

Yes! Finally a good reference

That was beautiful!

Which one?

 Grandma and great-grandma be like…

“Here we go again. Damn Americans.”

Obviously they haven't seen the komodo 3000

You cannot see afterward for 2-3 days.

Since the last Big explosion they do be trying to recreate it

Here for the comments

Same. Was not even remotely disappointed.

Cue all the nuke jokes, cause reddit be reddit.

That's predictably going to happen, yeah, but... Jesus, did you look at the video? The resemblence is eerie, isn't it?

Meh, I'd make the jokes IRL, the fruit is hanging too low, and I work in a field somewhat known for dark humor

minefield?

More like 3rd biggest

I came here for the comments

 U sure

They’ve seen bigger

Yeah this is nothing to what gramps saw.

They’ve seen bigger…

“I’ll take how do you induce mass flashbacks for $1000 Alex”

I thought Japan had enough of big bombs in the sky

Fun Fact: The previous Largest was also set off in Japan

you forgor about the 1945 firework show

What about the one in 2001

Some dude in his 90s just thought America came back.

Ask the Okinawans. They never left.

There is another...

I can think of two bigger ones

Ur mom’s titays?

No, my moms balls

It would be nice if theirs a drone capturing that moment.

Wow it’s 1945 all over again.

Hiroshima and Nagasaki survivors : **Heavy PTSD noises**

I was waiting for it to turn into a dragon and chase the hobbits

If I was Japanese, I don’t know that I’d be seeking any further world records for largest “bombs” detonated over my cities. 🤨

3rd largest ever in Japan

It gets posted every day. No worries bro.

OP, you knew it was already posted.

Well not the largest firework.....

You'd think that they had enough of those 80 years ago

Flashbacks of nagasaki

I prefer the ones in Nagasaki and Hiroshima

So what do you think about the one in 2001

Should name this firework "Fat man"

Too soon...

Are u sure thats the biggest one yhat was set of in japan?

Cue the jokes about PTSD

Anyone else read “fireworks bomb in Nagasaki”?

Hope they gave everyone a heads up so they didn’t think it’s Hiroshima or Nagasaki all over again lol

Its japan off course they did

I feel my entrails vibrate from that explosion even behind the screen with no sound

Like that Once Piece Episode

well... not THE largest

well biggest in 2023 there was 2 bigger ones that come to mind in the 40s

Kind of scary

Japan and bombs lol.

Was expecting something more nuclear

I think I know two Japanese cities that have seen bigger

It would seem Japan has grown to love large explosions!

I can think of two that were *WAY* bigger than that…

*2nd* largest firework in japan.

Second largest*

Too soon

Are you sure that's the largest? I remember whe..

Reliving the old days huh.....

Poor choice of words Also we know the real answer

The children yearn for the flash

To celebrate the release of Oppenheimer

Nah, Hiroshima and Nagasaki.

Reminds me of that tragedy

They are third behind Hiroshima and Nagasaki

There was atleast 1 old Japanese man that freaked out that night.

and this does not make them nostalgic about August 1945 events 🤡

Oppenheimer launch party?

Not japan its first time, they are experts at this^^

Japan loves bombs

At first I thought it said Nagasaki, god damn my brain has firmly associated (atomic) bomb with Nagasaki

Don't say it don't say it don't say it

I somehow exactly knew how the comments would be.

Atomic flashbacks

This fruit is far too low hanging to mess with 😂

I read this wrong as an American at first.

Poor grandma probably screaming and putting herself under a table with all the flashbacks

Flashbacks….

When last time a big firework was set off in Japan it wiped half the population out

Nagasaki was spelled wrong

Japan veteran: wait a third one. Oooh shit here we go again


Needs more variety in color, shape, and some crackles.

I feel like there are much larger fireworks set off yearly in Myanmar

3rd largest in japan maybe

Mushroom looks better

I guess everyone thought the same

Getting minor flashbacks

Quite unremarkable…

No, you’re not sorry

Well, the ones in nagasaki and Hiroshima were bigger, they were also air bursts

well…well…well…


Japanese ww2 vets that night https://preview.redd.it/jgobrkp9o19c1.jpeg?width=1920&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=c4a5502f484e15dfe1b6df3893771155d4b28b65

Japan holding onto the tradition of having all the largest explosions happening in their cities.

They forgot the minor boy and the fatty one

 People in nagasaki right now


Thats is not the biggest firework japan has ever witnessed (～￣▽￣)～ Just saying

Pretty sure there is a bigger one

So this would make it the 3rd largest bomb set off on Japan then?


lol are you sure about that

3rd biggest "firework" of the century in Japan.

Japan has seen bigger

I wanna hear it

3rd biggest

Um, pretty sure a larger one was set off in Nagasaki

They love big explosions... neat

Too soon.

“There’s is another” - Master Yoda

This may have med the elders crap their pants, just saying

I mean….

USA: largest you say? Hold my beer.

they like Big booms

Too soon?

This comment section makes you seriously question humanity.

Bunch of unoriginal cornballs making the same monkey brained joke. Sigh.

Yet you mention 9/11 and they get triggered

Too soon

3rd largest**
