A spectacular light show—a gift from France—took place at the Statue of Liberty ahead of America’s 250th birthday.

“The Statue of Liberty will be revealed to the public as never before, in a production designed to amplify its symbolic and emotional power,” the French consulate said, adding the light show would showcase “France’s excellence through its technology and its artists.”

“Our friendship goes back 250 years; it remains very strong, it is deep, and that is why we wanted to do something memorable,” France’s consul in NY, Cedrik Fouriscot said.

250 people formed the shape of the Liberty Bell on the lawn at Independence Mall in Philadelphia.

Those who formed the outline of the bell wore white T-shirts, including Miss America and all 53 of this year's Miss America delegates.

The top of the bell and the crack featured people in blue.

Volunteers in red filled in the remainder of the bell.

A miracle pulled from the rubble 🙏

A 43 year old man named Hernan Gil was pulled alive from beneath a collapsed nine story building in Venezuela after spending eight days trapped under nearly 30 feet of rubble. Rescue crews called the 70 hour operation ‘miraculous.’ The security guard was conscious, stable, and reunited with hope after surviving the country’s devastating earthquakes.

8 days under the rubble! “We found you Buddy! Don't lose faith, don't stop searching!”

And then this. He came to their voice. Miracles continue in Venezuela! ❤️🇻🇪

Bryce Harper remains undecided on whether he’ll do the Home Run Derby, assuming he’s an All-Star. He knows the fans want him to do it, but said he doesn’t have a thrower because his dad hasn’t thrown in years. So we’ll see.
