But man, proud man,
Drest in a little brief authority,
Most ignorant of what he ’s most assured,
His glassy essence, like an angry ape,
Plays such fantastic tricks before high heaven
As make the angels weep.
- William Shakespeare
What a combination of talents and hard work!
AHAHAHA! Brilliant! I love this. Human ingenuity at work! Wow what you can do with that much time on your hands. That much coordination is unbelievable. The fireworks were the most impressive. The whole thing was hilarious.
It's a very cute idea, and the creators are obviously doing it for entertainment, but I hope everyone knows it's fake.
For proof, check out when the 'big sheep' is 'walking' (00:40). The leg show the black sheep overlaping each other as the legs pass by.
Hope someone gets inspired to do this for real :)
wow. I never would EVER think of such a weird way of trying to use LED lights. But overall, Bravo!

I appreciate your disbelief, but having one "leg/flock" of black sheep overtaking and running through the other "leg" of sheep is not difficult. Sheep don't crash into each other. Professionally competitive sheepdogs and shepherds are awesome to watch. Plus, please don't underestimate the sense of humor and amount of free time the Welsh shepherds possess.
