Hundreds of drones light up LA sky for record-breaking aerial display

By the power of Grayskull, this Los Angeles drone show had the power — to break a world record.

A drone light show over LA, which formed a teeth-chattering Skeletor and other “Masters of the Universe”-related art, broke the Guinness World Record for “brightest aerial image formed by” drones on Tuesday night.

The light show was meant to promote the “Masters of the Universe” movie coming out on June 5, starring Nicholas Galitzine, Camila Mendes and Jared Leto. The movie is the first in the franchise since its first live-action adaptation in 1987.

Director Travis Knight is seen collecting the record and celebrating.

“The movie isn’t even out yet,” he’s heard saying before congratulating his team.

The drones formed the iconic Skeletor, the movie’s title, and He-Man’s iconic saying: “By the power of Grayskull, I have the power!”

The drones even formed the electricity emanating from He-Man’s sword as the phrase formed in the sky over LA. The show also saw drones surround the hero in a bubble as a beam of light shot through the center of the display and high into the sky.

Masters of the Universe reportedly carries a monster budget between $170 and $200 million. Amazon MGM Studios is behind the film, which is long-awaited. The immensely popular franchise began with a comic book and action figure portfolio before expanding to television and movies in the 1980s.
