A description from the FWsim website reads:įWsim Pro is a fireworks show design and simulation software, designed for fireworks companies and semiprofessional pyrotechnicians. This program allows users to generate custom (and digital) fireworks displays. The video was created circa 2015 with a computer program called FWsim. These fireworks are actually the result of a piece of fireworks-simulation software, and this video is several years old. In fact, this isn’t a genuine video of fireworks at all. Turns out that this video had originally been uploaded to YouTube way back on December 1, 2015, with the title: FWsim Mount Fuji Synchronized Fireworks Show2, and was originally created in commemoration of Mount Fujis World Cultural Heritage registration, using the fireworks simulator software, FWsim. This is not a genuine video from Tokyo of a fireworks display meant for the 2020 Olympics. The fireworks couldn't be stored until the Olympics actually begin, so Tokyo WENT OFF. With it was the claim that city officials in Tokyo, where the 2020 Olympics were scheduled to be held before being delayed due to the COVID-19 pandemic, had decided to set off the decorative explosives because they could no longer store them: In August 2020, a video supposedly showing a grand firework display started circulating on social media.
