It has to be one of more spectacular fireworks displays I’ve witnessed – Dubai’s Guinness World Record 2014 New Year’s Eve fireworks display.

There had been a fireworks spectacular at midnight at the world’s tallest building – the Burg Kahlifa.

But then about 12.20am Dubai’s Palm Island erupted as you can see from the video below and shot from the shoreline from the Jumeriah Beach Resort.
