The Mirage Volcano

[LASTGUY2GETPS2]

The mirage at los vegas, does anyone know how the fake volcano works? (Like in detail)Pic

 

[eldorado99]

water jets and red spotlights?

Lots of pumps to compress the water, then a valve opens and the water flies up in the air. Some sort of hydrocarbon oil is put out for the fire.

I don't know for sure that that's how it works, but I've seen it in action and that's my sort-of-expert guess.
