Prom Extravaganza: Helicopters, Caskets, and $20,000 Videos
High school proms across North America are becoming increasingly extravagant, with students spending thousands of dollars on elaborate entrances and video productions. One recent prom saw a student arrive in a helicopter, while another made a dramatic entrance in a casket. The cost of these productions is also rising, with some prom videos costing over $20,000. "I've seen some students spend $22,000 on a prom video," says one social media commentator. The trend raises questions about the pressure on students and families to keep up with these extravagant displays. While some see the trend as harmless fun, others worry about the financial burden and potential for social comparison. The video concludes with a call for discussion on the matter and a question about the future of prom celebrations.
