Multi-Camera Launch to 110,000 feet.

I was recently hired to shoot a promo spot for Spacecraft Technology Expo in Los Angeles. Sometimes I conceive silly ideas to make the expos more interesting and fun. The last weekend before I had to shoot the actual Expo, I decided to launch 4 HD GoPro cameras up to the lower atmosphere to 110,000 feet simulating, in part, the flight of a rocket. Footage I thought, that would be great to inter cut as b roll for the show footage. I did not realize the epic journey I was embarking on when beginning this adventure. It was a little life changing and extremely adventurous and I will do it again in a heartbeat. The back story is even better than the footage, as there will be a little doc that will follow in the near future that will follow the 14 mile hike into private ranch land, my encounters with wlid life and the harsh back country of Arizona. Out of the four cameras I sent up, these are the three that recorded the flight, one camera looking down, and two showing the horizontal view. We set the lift off from the Island next to London Bridge on Lake Havasu which is one of the few lakes that has a river running through it, the mighty Colorado River. The flight time to 110,000 feet lasted about 2.5 hours, until the helium balloon popped and it descended downward with gps and a parachute slowing its fall. The recording time lasted about 2:14 hrs. It took about 45 minutes to get back down to earth. I lost gps tracking at about 60,000 feet and would not pick up its signal again until it fell below 60,000 ft and by then the winds had taken it many miles off course... By the end I had to travel about 130 miles away to retrieve the camera rig... I did NOT find it the first day of my adventure, so after hiking about fourteen miles in and part way off the private land, I was picked up by my buddy Dustin and Julie, Tux and Elvis (faithful companions) who managed to get my truck onto the property to save me the entire hike back out. Thank you Dustin and Julie. My legs were jello by that point, and darkness was falling, as was my sanity. Mountain lion, elk, deer, cow, horse, and snake prints were signs that I was not alone out there... That first day of knowledge helped immensely for the following day, with access and permission to enter the land, we found the rig after only a few mile hike after the drive into the harsh Arizona back country. We rejoiced, so with out further adieu, here is the 2.14 hr footage, sped up of course.
