Lion dance ( 舞獅) is a form of traditional dance in Chinese culture and other Asian countries in which performers mimic a lion's movements in a lion costume to bring good luck and fortune. The lion dance is usually performed during the Chinese New Year and other Chinese traditional, cultural and religious festivals. It may also be performed at important occasions such as business opening events, special celebrations or wedding ceremonies, or may be used to honour special guests by the Chinese communities.

Happy New Year 2026 from Chongqing, China! 🎆

In this video, I captured the spectacular New Year's Eve celebration in Chongqing. The scale was massive, featuring river boat lasers, water curtain projections, and a record-breaking fleet of **8000 drones** lighting up the sky!

📍 **A quick note:**
The crowds in Chongqing tonight were absolutely insane! Because there were so many people, I couldn't fight my way to the absolute best vantage point, so some parts of the video might not have the "perfect" angle. I appreciate your understanding!

🚀 **Please watch until the end!**
The **8000-drone finale** was absolutely breathtaking. The countdown and the visuals in the sky were shocking. I hope you enjoy this festive atmosphere!

When it comes to making movies, there’s Hollywood of course, and you’ve probably heard of Bollywood in India. But now get ready for shouts of “Action!” from Chinawood. That’s right, the Chinese have discovered the blockbuster, and with potential theatre audiences of 1.4 billion people, it’s not surprising that in China more than 20 new cinema screens are opening every day. In this business worth billions, it’s expected that Chinawood will soon topple Hollywood. But far from being worried, American and Aussie filmmakers are racing to get in on the action.

There are a lot of channels (including this one) talking about the private space race, but few are paying much attention to what China’s been doing. Shut out of international space missions for 14 years, they have built their own program, with a strong commitment to the moon in 2029. And their track record has been beyond impressive.

Today we’ll discuss the Chinese space program, plus topics relating to tragedies in Kpop, ancient wisdom around meteorites, and the future politics of Mars on today’s lightning round video.
