With the world's attention set on "Star Wars: The Force Awakens," it's no surprise that people are doing their own unique "Star Wars"-themed thing.
Nevertheless, these creations are still stunning, and YouTube user Tom BetGeorge's Christmas light show is no exception. BetGeorge started making a light show based on the music of "Star Wars" in 2014, where he programmed 100,000 Christmas lights, according to Mashable.
BetGeorge took his "Star Wars"-themed Christmas light show to a new level this year with about 200,000 channels that powers 70,000 lights. The "Star Wars" fan reportedly made the show in one month, costing him about $80 each night to run the show, Mashable reported.
Check out the awesome show below.
Fortunately for BetGeorge, his neighbors doesn't mind the bright flashing lights.
"A big shout out to the best neighborhood ever (I'm actually using my neighbors' lawn if you haven't noticed). They are all wonderful people and I'm glad to be a part of the community," he wrote in his video description.
Tom BetGeorge's video isn't the only Star-Wars themed Christmas light show to hit the headlines recently.
According to New Jersey 101.5, another tech-savvy "Star Wars" fan, this time in Demarest, made his own Christmas light show. However, this one he dedicated to his late mother.
Fifteen-year-old Daniel Eisenberg told NJ101.5:
"We have over a hundred thousand lights! If my mom had seen this, she would've been in awe."
While BetGeorge used his neighbor's lawn for his creation, Eisenberg placed his state-of-the-art light display on his own lawn at 38 Evergreen Place.
The show plays to a 30-minute musical soundtrack, and the highlight is of "Star Wars'" epic theme song. However, what makes Daniel's creation unique is that the sound to his show can only be heard via New Jersey 98.1, which had been previously dormant.
"I chose 98.1 because it was open. It was just a bunch of static when I found it," the ingenious teen explained.
"I set [the soundtrack] so it could only transmit about 1,000 feet around my house. So whatever music I play will broadcast straight into your car," he added.
The teen even said that people from as far as Pennsylvania and New York have travelled to his lawn just to see his show.
Now a freshman at Northern Valley Demarest High School, Daniel uses his hobby to make people happy and raise money for the American Heart Association, since his mom died of a heart attack.
