Is there any other place than youtube where one can view this video?


Shit, I've seen that happen to one other user who was located overseas. I will see if I can get it up somewhere else for you

Amazing video, thanks for posting this. I'm also interested in the camera retrieval process, I wonder where it ended up falling lol. Specifically, what if it fell into water somewhere or something...that would have been crazy to try and retrieve.

That is soooo beautiful, but watching it when it got into space, gave me the chills because I'm quite afraid of heights lol.

They used an iPhone with some GPS app to retrieve the phone. IIRC the phone only traveled 30 or so miles from where it was sent off because of the winds.

Seems cool, but the combination of the lens used and the movement of the camera gave me a massive headache :|

Wouldn't the camera burn up like an asteroid?

The whole "burn on re-entry" thing would have been prevented by whatever mechanism they used to land the camera gently. Heck a "popped" balloon likely creates enough drag to prevent a terminal velocity high enough to cause burning.

Still very curious on how they reasonably reattained the camera. That sounds like the hardest part of the whole project!

Hey, this is cool. If I recall correctly, Day9 mentioned something similar on one of his daily.
Now I have to get my VPN to actually watch the video on Youtube T_T.

And now for the mind=blown realization: from 9:00 on if you look carefully when the glare from the sun is shown, the ice + the glare + the lens make it look exactly llike the reflection of an Eye.

Haha, I never noticed that but wow that is pretty amazing. I will try rehosting this elsewhere for those of you who can't watch. Give me a day or two and I will put it up. Thanks for all the kind comments!

Oh hey!

Just want to say your products are the SHIT! I love my Countour HD so much. The only thing I hate is that you had to come out with the Countour GPS 6 months after I bought the HD, and tracking is the one thing I am missing most :-( I to drop another 400 Euro on this :-(

Don't know if you can answer this, how well does the GPS track vertical speed? A lot of GPS seem to have problems with that from what I looked at so far.

Anyway love your products, keep making awesome stuff!
