I did not produce this video, but I know some of the people involved.

This video is pretty interesting.

They combine the drama a slow-motion cinema soundtrack style music with hero-pose drama walking down a corridor to a control room where they launch a rocket in the style of old-school NASA suspense and pre-launch tension.

Enjoy!

Some high school kids from Fredericksburg, TX fired one off that hit 36,000 feet at White Sands.

The guy holding the camera must have been drunk at around 2:25 — couldn’t hold it steady at all!

The launch area is probably the spot where they also do some explosive testing. It’s right off Hwy 60 a few miles east of Magdalena.
