A mysterious QR code made up of 300 drones appeared over the downtown Dallas skyline tonight hovering 400 feet in the night sky and sparking curiosity from people for miles in every direction. QR codes, which function as direct links that can be followed through your phone’s camera, are becoming a common part of everyday life, but are not what many would expect to be floating above their heads on a standard Thursday. When viewers below followed the scanned link, they were treated to a classic “Rick-Roll,” a term used when someone is pranked into an unexpected appearance of the music video for Rick Astley’s popular song. Local drone light show company Sky Elements has taken credit for the April Fools’ Day prank and says they were hoping to bring a little spirit to the day.
Sky Elements’ chief pilot Preston Ward, who was part of this light-hearted joke said, “After seeing how much of a hit our last QR code at South by Southwest was, we couldn’t let the opportunity pass to prank the entire city of Dallas with a mysterious QR code.”
Sky Elements is a drone light show company that has done numerous flights in and around the Dallas area in the past few years. Locals may remember their recent Pokémon show with KZitemr Leonhart in January or their Halloween show back in October. They have also done numerous shows across the country and been part of some incredible events in the past year alone. And while this QR code wasn’t perhaps as flashy as some of their other shows in the area, the team says that they are just trying to brighten people’s day in the way they best know how
