Project Space Planes - Launch!

[johnofk]

When the thing burst, and we saw the planes get released, it looked like they just disappeared into outta space? Brilliant idea though

[lovelplants]

haha i anyone will found one they're scare that it might be a virus.. :)

nice idea.

[d4ni5h]

They all fell into the ocean.

[deanodean1984]

fair shout lads

[sebra1818]

thumbs up if rude tube brought you here

[pvtcotti96]

like this if you saw this on rude tube :)

[Danielkchoi]

I want to do this but I'm too lazy to do all that :P

[MrTheKing77]

country defense has spyed ufo invasion :D 200 ships atatck europe

[itsLittleKenny]

DUDE I JUST SAW SPACE! SICK

[SuperFarinelli]

TC3

[mrmalade]

shit

[synide9]

so whered they go? they couldnt still b flyin around since january

[KennellyJP]

Seriously, don't people have anything better to do with their time?

[FrostbitexP]

@KennellyJP

...but this is something cool to do with your time...?!?!

i dont understand your comment =/

what do you do in your free time?

[WindyCityNinja]

Alright, you made this video back in jan...give us an update already?! We want answers?

[cristohv]

soo it only takes a ballon with helium to get close enough to the top where space is......and nasa uses rockets....just a thought :)

[stephanosanio]

@cristohv How heavy do you 200 "paper" planes with a tiny SD card attached on them are?

[Tartrus1]

@cristohv Because it's sane to lift hundreds of tons of metal with a really big helium balloon right? 

[brx6n2]

not actually in proper space just needs to be higher but yeah that was AWSOME!!!!

[Charles2337]

I could use an 8 gig memory card to stash my porn. My 4 gig is running out of room =(

[fideljr83]

@1:54 @2:05 Basura Espacial... aunque ya se que hacer con los exámenes en donde fracase.

[iAmirx]

Free porn on memory sticks I hope.

[Harold1305]

The SD memory card is probably full of viruses and spyware, at least, that's what i'd think...

[phonx296]

Now that would be an awesome way to spread malware all over the world!

[Mulitfrog]

Somebody forgot to tell them that about 70% of the Earth's surface is covered by water.

[thegodphreaker]

How did they not burn up?

[kessbd]

Didn't it faze anyone on this production that they were effectively littering the earth with completely non-biodegradable material?

[frknnutz]

@kessbd not a bit. What makes yuou so sure the planes are not biodegradable? Would you bitch and moan if they released money in space?

[fronkenpoop]

What a novel way to deploy a computer virus.

[Mulitfrog]

@fronkenpoop You're a genius.

[gfreakj]

Great experiment. Very intersting.

[halo007Mex]

lol tats awesome¡¡¡

[jc77real]

my video response

youtube.com/watch?v=FY90M7DQLb­4

[jc77real]

I wish one flew my way!

[edgajam]

so thats is what i found in my yard

[xmripper]

Stolen idea from Google's "Android in Space"

[KoaKBeatz]

fake!

[miblington]

@KoaKBeatz don't be silly!It's real alright!

[scottsawesomeart]

have any planes been found? ...if so whats the where did they go ?

[scottsawesomeart]

have any planes been found? ...if so whats the where did they go ?

[fufunet]

Hi. Awesome project. Loved it.

I'd like to know what program did you use in order to track the parachute.

[marwouan]

Why is the hell would 12 people dislike this video??

Do you have an paperplanophobia?

[HybridWaterMan2]

Now I will have to keep my eyes open here in California. Very cool marketing campaign...

[jeffersoneck]

I'd like to find one of them in Brazil. It'll be very cool and funny.

[UTubeAndPizza]

I found a plane. Here in Arizona, USA.

The SD card is fine.

It traveled farther than I expected.

[Eveh111]

@UTubeAndPizza  Wow. And did you send a message to those people???

[BakaRice]

i don't give crap. now give me that sd card

[triptechb]

Rock on! That looked like fun!

[xoxerikaox]

Oh, how I wish I had found one these planes.

[lluvianihilista]

don't the cards have a serial number or a unique ID so that you can verify the reports? you need only to add a TXT file in the cards with a secret email address and a unique alphanumeric code to identify each card. quite simple.

[b0utch]

Samsung*

[b0utch]

This cool but. Samung. Stop polluting the world damnit go green

[SpartanM621]

All I was thinking about during this video was whether or not some American tourist's would spot a trapped whether balloon in their jet engine. 

[JeffBilkins]

what's the terminal velocity of a paper plane from space?

[codera]

@JeffBilkins There's no such thing as a terminal velocity in space. Well, the speed of light, I guess.

[zingmars]

2 months after hundreds of death fish are found all over the world. Cause of death? Digested memory cards. From space. Almost.

[stelth96]

He has a Dell laptop......Sponsered by Samsung?

[OverbrainUnplugged]

Kingsleyfaulkner is a bit of a grump. While you only got 1/3 of the distance to space, the fact is that the atmospheric density at the altitude you reached is a tiny fraction of a percent of sea level's atmospheric density. For all intents and purposes, you reached a near-vacuum condition that has been reached by only a few aircraft in history.

[zhgutikov]

этого бы выдумщика да в тайгу лет на 15 лес валить

[1EyeSack1]

If some of those fall into perú ill let you know

[dimag0g]

Is this even possible for a paper plane to fly 6000 km to South Africa after a launch from 36 km? I think not! Stupid SD card advertisement >__<

[Tygrychu]

@dimag0g

I guess it is possible, a paper plane has little weight, and the winds up there are much stronger, it doesn't obey gravity that much...

[dimag0g]

@Tygrychu Well, I have to admit I didn't think of the wind. Maybe it is possible after all.

[timebmb757]

Whats the song in the background? Its awesome lol,

Almost as awesome as launching paper planes from low orbit!

[OverbrainUnplugged]

@timebmb757 This was not "low orbit" by any means. Orbit means flying over 17,0000 mph. This was not even a suborbital trajectory because it never rose any distance on latent upward velocity, its altitude gain occured while completely under lift generated by the lighter than air envelope.

[dogdove]

Holy Crap! The earth is round!

[dimag0g]

@dogdove Holy Crap! I am an hysterical dummy!

[shebotnov]

@dogdove wow, who knew!

[richy448]

you do realise theyd all get wet from the weather before they fall down..

[CassieRoseee]

@richy448 the cards are waterproof.

[jackrox66]

The 10 dislikes where from the paper planes that got trapped.

[Sookieelicious]

You just wasted money and time to litter all over Germany. Congratulations.

[MrKoreanDrama]

and they all land in the ocean

[Firespyrt]

@xxxxddxxddxddddxxxxx i bet its a virus u spammer

[shbrines9]

youtube best day ever. first we see 'man sells anus on ebay' and now memory cards launched into space!

[haydenstreater]

@shbrines9 what about ids on coke? haha

[infantserbian]

what if the ALLSPARK somewhere in the space transforms those planes into decepticons, and were all screwed then, its possible because even though they are made of paper but have an SD card attached to them, if you guys think we should be worried give me thumbs up!!!

[GeneralG1810]

@infantserbian Actually its be good because then Megan Fox can save us >8-D

[Riot454di]

cool

[SupaNovaOsh]

Couldnt have picked a more horrible cloud covered day.

[Klementynaa]

I wish i would find one :)

[ZaraOver]

stop littering everywhere !!!!!!!

[7CellarDoors]

Whats the bet one of them has porn on it...

[AsianLoader]

it be funny if all the plan drive into the sea

[TheJohn8765]

Oh God... memory chips from Germany... today, that's bad enough...now imagine if one of these cards gets preserved for millennia. Super-Raccoon anthropologists will be arguing if cross dressing, anally inclined, rape-fantasy bondage-fetished Homo sapiens wandered the Earth 5000 years before them, or whether 'we just preferred good old fashioned fisting'.

Oh God... the shame.

[ausanimefan]

@TheJohn8765 NOOOO

[ryan180294]

isn't it that guy from the samsung ssd awesomeness video?

[TheGuitarkid888]

How many of these things will land in the ocean?

[Melusedek]

@TheGuitarkid888 approx 70%?

[TheGuitarkid888]

@Melusedek

D: Shame

[yoctomx]

@TheGuitarkid888 just 3

[koikez]

if you press 9 while watching this you can make the dude at the back dance!! hahaha

[Brondashi]

Why?

[shakenbake1869]

if you check their site people have been claiming they found one in America, Canada and South Africa, haha, I call BS...at 36Km above sea level I cant imagine their decent across the atlantic is possible, nor do I think air currents run south across africa...cool idea tho

[stacksflowin]

instead of memory cards they should have used 50 dolla billz... that would help the world

[sallythescorpion]

amazing. good work guys.

[MrWombatsoup]

8 people didn't find a paper plane and were mad about it. Others accepted the fact.

[timjohns]

Litter Bugs !!!

[xXxJulianxXx92]

i haven´t a cardreader :/

[JABrouwer82]

What's the guy in the back say around 1:10?

[miblington]

@JABrouwer82 by a man in a potting shed

[Nickarrrrr]

Whats the rathergood guy doing in this video? wat

[WindyCityNovelties]

Brilliant idea. I'm not sure how much this cost, but if these guys were the first do it, kudos to them.

[AzaeloSc]

@WindyCityNovelties with the idea.. yea the first... but i've seen this "experiment" before but whit an iphone XD

[WindyCityNovelties]

@AzaeloSc So wait, you mean instead of lil memory cards they were dropping iPhones all over?

[AzaeloSc]

@WindyCityNovelties jajaja no, just threw an iphone to the space with a weather balloon

[shades2]

This is one of the coolest amatuer projects performed. Great concept and brilliantly executed. :D

[Naf3tS1]

Great project! Well done.

[theKall]

Umm. . .At that height, how much of the Earths surface are we seeing actually? Cause I'm really interested in possibility that such a huge surface is covered in clouds... When I saw this video, it seamed very very fake to me :/

[kingsleyfaulkner]

Hi guys, great idea for a bit of fun but 36.5km is not space by any accepted measure. Technically 36.5km is in the middle of the stratosphere well and within the Earths atmosphere.

Some interesting facts for those who are interested; NASA awards astronaut wings after going above 80km however within the scientific community the commonly accepted point at which space begins – the Karman Line – is 100km above sea level.

[SLIPKNOT0fan1]

@kingsleyfaulkner nerd

[slotwinski1414]

@kingsleyfaulkner who cares....

I mean... it'd still be fun to find one of those planes, it's still more of an accomplishment then you'll ever make with paper airplanes, if it were at 80km the planes wouldn't fall back down (and they'd burn up), and yah.

And whoever finds them gets a free SMcard.

[z0rr0rr0r]

@kingsleyfaulkner Well if they were in space they wouldn't fall to Earth I guess...

[MaRcIu27]

@kingsleyfaulkner where did they say spacE? I heard edge. and if u can see the earth curvature Yes its the edge and they dont care about values.

[mrandrew89]

eh? wouldn't they burn up in the atmosphere

[jalit]

@mrandrew89 No, they are travelling no where near fast enough.

[ajshafto]

SO how does this not class as littering?

[MickForjay]

ha, someone's got to say it - they're just plane crazy

[PotatoeMonkey53]

wont they fall so fast from space that they would literally burn up?

[meda789]

@PotatoeMonkey53 they are planes there fore aero-dynamic which means they should glide into earth? yes? no? maybe?

[shades2]

@PotatoeMonkey53 No, they weigh very little only a few grams and have a lot of light wing surface, so they fly along and don't produce much air friction at all. Not like a 112.32 metric ton landing weight of a returning space shuttle, which has a much faster entry speed before it starts to slow down with it's stubby (heavy) wings.

[smccabe6]

Yeah, lets drop lots of objects from 30,000 metres to advertise our company. Dont worry about everyone who gets hit by them or the damage it will cause to our cars when they accidentaly fall out of the planes.

[biiotic]

@smccabe6 they would cause close to no damage.

[lvk96]

wow, thats a great idea!

[locouk]

I checked out the Twitter page and got this message, " Sorry, that page doesn’t exist!".

The phrase "Oh Bum" springs to mind!

[miblington]

@locouk I just got onto it without any problem. . it's well worth a look

[m1k3072]

Win! Well done you lot.

[coolgamer1677]

If I did this I'd get slapped with a huge littering fine. What makes the corporate elite so special?

[Armyless1]

To everyone that thinks they're polluting the earth: gtfo our planet you whiny troglodytes.

[gybp]

stupid way to send rubbish to mother earth

[derman077]

I wonder if a mouse saw you guys use the stick as a tool and in a billion years after we have left for another planet they evlove the same way, lol

[Garnizzle]

A very cool idea!

[Coherent805]

In 100,000,000 years one of those SD cards will be found in a shelf of compressed strata and have its memory recovered by cephalopoid archaeologists. It will be used as proof of mankind's existence, finally ending the debate.

[TheCrappyaccount]

@Coherent805 lol and there will be a group of people (probably religious ones) who wont accept the evidence

[testingforms]

What you couldn't wait till spring or summer? Who does this in the rain? Stupid...

[antendies]

@testingforms

It was done to prove the waterproofness, of course.

[gintroubad]

You are full of win. Whiny ass titty babies are whiny ass titty babies.

[miblington]

Brilliant work! 

[OSCAR1777]

stop polluting the earth you #$%^ advertising $%^&

[peteaseib]

Rodney Dangerfield!

[olllj]

video of the balloons descent please.

[spewstruth]

Great job, you spammy idiots. Aside from deliberately littering the German countryside and the damage caused to the environment from decomposing SD cards. I Look forward to the ensuing million dollar damages claim against Samsung when one of your 'projectiles' smashes into a squishy human face. Did you consult your solicitors before embarking on this insanely dubious operation.

[xRawlins]

@spewstruth Holy shit it's the nanny police. I don't know if you know whats actually inside an SD-card(hint, it's not fresh produce), but they don't decompose. There are no liquids, they don't explode like batteries left to rot, they're made of plastic and metal(and cardboard if you count the plane, which should decompose rather safely). The metals are rather harmless, and most definitely won't decompose in the next few hundred years, and last time I checked there are no microbes to eat plastic.

[spewstruth]

@xRawlins Err, right, the objects wont decompose. So what better reason is their to not go throwing SD cards around the countryside. There is a reason why there is currently a huge shift towards packaging that is biodegradable. Very irresponsible stunt and very cynical. Remember that those involved are only doing it to make a quick buck. Great work, guys. So proud. Care about the environment? F*ck that sh*t. I want to get paid.

[olllj]

@spewstruth I savely asume that the terminal velocity and impact of an SD card is far less than off a penny (and likely even less than a small piece of hail/ice).

It has been tested with pennies (mistly copper/steel or similar density) from skyscrapers, they reach terminal velocity rather quickly and do not leave a dent on human skin at that speed.

[MonGrimSqueaker]

"Duuuuuuudes"

[dropandblock]

Nobody jumped from space dumbass, it was a mounted camera

[monohalo]

@dropandblock In 1960 Joe Kittinger jumped from a helium balloon that had traveled high into the Stratosphere. While technically not considered space, its pretty damn close to it. So you're right, no one has jumped from "space", but how about you stop being an eDouche and actually leave a constructive comment?

[acidum984]

Nice idea and interesting aproach!

[Garybassist]

i totally envy the guy that got to do this (jump from space not launch paper planes) :P

[gaiagale]

I hope each plane is found rather than becoming litter some where

[jimmyPain2121]

couldn't of waited for nicer weather? cool idea though

[massive611]

Dear amateur scientists. Space is defined as starting above 100,000 meters. Meaning, at no point in your experiment do you deserve or have the right to be using the word 'space'. Sincerely yours,

[g1598]

@massive611

but dont you think if they really let them off in space that the planes wouldn't fly or if they went to high they would maybe burn back up on re entry into the atmosphere

[chadachada123]

@g1598

They weren't released nearly far enough or at enough speed to escape Earth's gravity, which extends far beyond mere atmosphere, which is what the "edge of space" meant in this video's context.

As for burning up, while I don't have enough knowledge in that area to conclusively say no, I'm almost certain that they would be falling slow enough that the drag wouldn't ignite the plane. That or the planes would enter a nose dive, go far faster, but still likely wouldn't ignite.

[massive611]

@g1598 Exactly, which is why the title is misleading.

[mare9000]

It would be nice if they were trowing free crisys 2 copies from the space :D :D

[KairuHakubi]

UBER LITTERING naw jk this is awesome :)

[BrowPass]

I'd love to know how far the furthest one went that's found?

[crazycaucazian86]

nice a bookmark to reddit =)

[juepaviafacebook]

UFOs made by Samsung :-)

[HeppNaChris]

lol each paper plane has a card of 8GB !!!! definitly a motivation for me xD but they won't land round my house i think =P

[Indyaner]

The chances are good that 90% of the planes landed in the Atlantic Ocean.

[nareshisking]

1 person did not get a paper plane.
