Showin' t' views from a FlipHD and a GoPro side by side you get a first hand view o' what it is like t' fly t' 121000 feet. Avast, me proud beauty! These cameras flew on September 30, 2011 at 11:08am on Derek Deville's Qu8k (pronounced "Quake") launched from t' Black Rock Desert in Nevada before returnin' safely t' earth. A plastic cover that was protectin' t' protrudin' portion o' t' GoPro began t' melt due t' aerodynamic heatin' and can be seen as streaks passin' by t' lens. Aye aye! A small bit o' this molten plastic re-solidifies over a portion o' t' lens. Avast! Bein' above 99% o' t' atmosphere, t' sky turns black in t' middle o' t' day and t' curvature o' t' earth is clearly visible. T' rocket motor produced 4000 lbs o' thrust for 8 seconds acceleratin' t' vehicle t' over Mach 3.
