Nice sift still.
Well, ok, it's not really. But honestly- it points to something that Science Fiction authors have been writing about for a while now- crazy stunts like this will become more and more ubiquitous as we start to share more and more of our sensorium. YouTube is great, but what about when we're all continuously recording everything around us? When we can construct 3d reenactments of the next mentos experiment craze by assembling different people's viewpoints a la photosynth?
The world will just get less and less mundane, is my hope. People will go to greater and greater lengths to be the next frontpage vid on gootube, the next top15 on VS, etc.
All that aside, the flying in this vid looks really tricky. You have to maintain a constant altitude, but change airspeed very carefully to not go zooming off, or to crash. Careful manipulation of um.. ailerons? Any pilots in the audience?
biggest problem is probably all the turbulence in that tunnel from cars up ahead and overtaking.
but i don't share your breathless utopianism about youtube!
i'm going canoeing this weekend, and i am not taking any kind of camera, and it will be nice to just chill without constantly thinking about doing something "crazy" on film. if someone falls out and gets wet in a funny way, i will just keep it in my memory, oldskool style.
