Interesting to see the rising heat creating inrush draft thus accelerating the burn towards the center.
We did that once in the Caribbean to clear a spot for a building for a mission I was working with. We gathered all of the 5 gallon plastic buckets we could find, borrowed them from neighbors, etc. Cleared "fire breaK" around the site. Placed the water filler buckets around the fire break. Lit the down wind edge and let it burn. Worked great. BUT you HAVE to have a day with little or no wind.
i think it's amazing how stable the drone shots are - the updraft would have been present, yet the drone platform was rock solid. (or is the images restabilised in post processing?)
