Liquid fireworks

In a cavernous warehouse tucked away in a gritty part of Cape Coral, Michael Przystawik is watching his workers assemble what will become a huge water show extravaganza in Vietnam.

Przystawik's company, Waltzing Waters, specializes in fountains that shoot giant 100-foot sprays of water synchronized with music and lights. The fountain for a park in Vietnam will measure 330 feet long with 101 pumps that will shoot water sprays while music and lights pulsate to create a choreographed show.

Including the Vietnam fountain, Przystawik has two other giant fountains on order that represent a total $10 million in sales. “I do two to four projects a year,” he says.
