VIDEO & PICS: Drone show wows 4th of July spectators in NYC

NEW YORK (1010 WINS) -- On July 4th, 500 lit-up drones synchronized into the shape of the Statue of Liberty over the East River.

The display came as a total, and welcome, surprise from Will Coss, the executive producer of Macy's Fourth of July Fireworks Show.


In addition to the Statue of Liberty, the drones formed into an American flag and spelled out the word "Macy's," all while Whitney Houston's "I Wanna Dance with Somebody" blared along the water.

The drone show preceded the 47th edition of Macy's fireworks show, during which 60,000 shells were launched into the night sky. 1010 WINS was the official radio sponsor.
