One hundred drones performing an amazing light show above an orchestra playing Beethoven's Symphony No. 5 just broke a Guinness World Record for Most Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) airborne simultaneously.

Though the exhibition took place in November 2015 at Flugplatz Ahrenlohe in Tornesch, Germany -- with the drones controlled by a ground crew using PCs with Intel software -- the video was released this month. Sure, you've seen drone videos before, but it's safe to say this one probably tops them all. Bonus: Watch it in HD.
