A Japanese Master Craftsman Taught Me To Make Senko Hanabi Fireworks

In this video I visit the fireworks company Tsutsui Tokimasa, and learn how to make traditional senko hanabi fireworks. Visit my sponsor Tab For A Cause and support charities with every tab you open! https://tab.gladly.io/nighthawk/ Ryota Tsutsui and his wife Kyoko were incredibly welcoming to me as I visited their fireworks factory to learn about senko hanabi. They have dedicated their lives to preserving these fireworks and uplifting their community in ways far deeper than I expected. Much of my time there I was unable to capture my own camera footage, as I had a job to do being filmed for Japanese TV. To make up for the lack of context I was able to show in this video I highly recommend watching this short documentary to see more behind the scenes of this amazing company and family: https://www3.nhk.or.jp/nhkworld/en/ondemand/video/3019088/ Here is a link to the Tsutsui Tokimasa website: https://tsutsuitokimasa.jp/item If you would like a laugh, here is my earlier video about how to make senko hanabi from before I knew better: https://youtu.be/9tl8DAwJ7S0 If you enjoy these videos consider supporting my channel on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/NightHawkProjects A special thanks to my top patrons: Enzo Breda Lee, Jon Hartmann & TheBackyardScientist! -Ben
