I had no idea that they had fitted these rockets with cameras, ever. I thought I saw/ heard ice crystals, or frozen left over fuel.

fantastic! I liked the soundtrack. A little mesmerizing. Thanks!

Pretty cool. I've seen a similar video before but the quality wasn't as good. It's interesting that at about the middle of the video when the booster is tumbling, you can see the other one and it appears to be keeping position relative to the edges of the frame.

Wow - Eric thanks for posting mate! I'm to be honest gob smacked!! How these things never hit land is amazing!
-
it's almost like they plan it that way!

I can't stop watching it.
This has to be the coolest video I've seen yet.Thanks Boof!

Since we have lost shuttles due to accidents at lift-off (Challenger and Columbia--Very sad. . .) with tiles falling off or fuel lines frozen it was absolutely imperative that every aspect of the launches be photographed. . .so that explains the cameras.
Plus. .. it makes for very cool video!
What I find incredible. . .how did they find a cameraman willing to do that??!!
**I mean. .. holding on and then having to swim in ocean like that and not dropping the camera. ..
Amazing!**
