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. 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. Begad! A plastic cover that be protectin' t' protrudin' portion o' t' GoPro began t' melt due t' aerodynamic heatin' and can be seen as streaks passin' by t' lens. Avast, me proud beauty! A small bit o' this molten plastic re-solidifies over a portion o' t' lens. Ahoy! 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. Ya scallywag! T' rocket motor produced 4000 lbs o' thrust for 8 seconds acceleratin' t' vehicle t' over Mach 3.
