The Man at sunset. |

People taking the picture of the Man at sunset. |
|
This year the Man was on a large pyramid. You could get a nice view of the city from it. Here a skydiver comes in for a landing. |
|
Another skydiver. |
|
Here Emmett gets ready to go out and watch the Man burn. |
|
Marianne and Ash get ready as well. |
|
The crowd begins to gather. |
|
A guy in the crowd was handing out sparklers. Skot and Ash watch, waiting for the burn to start. |
|
Immediately before the burn there was a huge show of fire dancers. |
|
As everyone gathered, the Man raised his arms. Unfortunately his left arm promptly collapsed, causing a spinal cord injury which took out all the lights on the left side. Here fires started in the pyramid, and fireworks erupted. |
|
Here the pyramid goes up in lots of flame. |
|
The flame becomes lots of smoke (obscuring the view of the Man) and pretty cool fireworks. |
|
|
A fire tornado has formed on the left. |
|
Skot, Jenny, and Adam watch the burn. |
|
The flames made a wonderful light to look at faces in the crowd. |
|
|
After the burn, a man launched a hot-air balloon. It had beautiful color patterns when the flame was on, and was completely invisible otherwise. |
