Have you ever wanted to watch a huge spinning wheel shoot off a glorious cacophony of fireworks? It's Friday, so here's to ending the week with a little bit of crazy.

To celebrate reaching 2 million subscribers on YouTube, DIY inventor Colin Furze crafted this intricate set up on the back of his pickup truck. The video is a flurry of bright explosions, punk music and yelling, and comes only eight months after his 1 million subscribers celebration video, where he set off 300 fireworks straight into the air from the back of his truck. In his latest video, he lights 120 rockets starting from the inside of the wheel and moving to the outside, and isn't afraid to get close.

Furze's excitement over creating and testing cool new projects has launched many of his videos' view counts into the millions. Some of his most popular projects include a propane-fueled, jet-powered bicycle, retractable Wolverine claws, a bike with ice wheels and an ejector bed.

Furze often couples his videos of inventions and experiments with behind-the-scenes looks that show the steps he went through to get to the final product, so if you're looking to make your own knife that toasts bread as you cut it, give him a follow.
