During the recent National Pyrotechnics Festival in Mexico, a model of a bull was burned as part of the celebrations. The event, which takes place annually in Tultepec just north of Mexico City, attracts around 100,000 revelers. The festival lasts for seven days, with the main event occurring on March 8th.
However, the festivities were overshadowed by a shocking incident that took place during the festival. A video posted on TikTok showed numerous people shining laser pointers at a passenger jet flying overhead. The video went viral, garnering over 30 million views. Shining lasers at aircraft is illegal in most countries and punishable by law. In the United States, individuals could face up to five years in prison for this offense.
The video showed a plane flying over the festival with two green laser beams pointed at it. As the plane continued its approach to Felipe Ángeles International Airport, more people joined in on the act, shining laser pointers at the jet. A drone footage also showed how the aircraft was nearly obscured by dozens of lasers being pointed at it.
The incident sparked outrage on social media, with many people questioning the legality and safety of such acts. In the US, laser incidents targeting aircraft have been on the rise, with the Federal Aviation Administration receiving a record 13,000 reports last year alone. The FAA issued a reminder that shining lasers at airplanes and helicopters is a federal crime that puts lives at risk.
In addition to this incident, there have been other cases where people have aimed laser pointers at planes and helicopters in various countries around the world. Such actions can lead to serious consequences for both those involved and those who are affected by them.
Overall, it is important for individuals to understand that pointing lasers at aircraft is not only illegal but also dangerous and could put lives at risk. It is crucial that everyone adheres to safety protocols and regulations when engaging in any type of activity during festivals or public events.
