Tjock-TV fick åka upp till rymden
Allt för en musikvideo
Joe Connor fick i uppdrag att göra en musikvideo till artisten Kelvin Jones och eftersom låten Call You Home handlar om rymden fick han en idé - och skickade upp en tjock-TV med en väderballong till atmosfären.
"Yup, that really is a TV in space, for real. I created this video by sending a vintage Sony TV into orbit on a weather balloon provided by Sent Into Space, surrounded by cameras so as to capture this spectacular footage hovering above the Big Blue Marble itself. More precisely, it took two launches - both from Snowdonia in Wales, with two identical TVs, with each launch providing the opportunity to rig the GoPros in different positions. I'm pleased to say that all TVs in this music video were harmed as they crash-landed back to earth. We sent the TV off from Snowdonia and it landed in Bury, Manchester - taking in my hometown of Warrington on the way which can be seen in the promo. I'm proud to say that the TV got 99.997% above the atmosphere, just 0.003% below the Armstrong line - surely the highest TV in history."
