[AdamLeeJones0906]

pointless.

[ClipBin]

All I can say is... awesome..

[EpicCommenterX]

Pretty awesome to be honest

[DISTORTEDSKYLINE]

one of the people in the tower block has a stomach problem, look for the 4 glass pain window that flashes on and off 4 times during the first night as they go to the poop deck ;)

[davedog0508]

what the fuck?? why??

[RetroSmooveHouse]

Brilliant stuff and gives a different twist to everyday life, well intriguing, seeing the flat lights go on and off. Liked the moon, clouds, sunrise, sunset and watching natural and habitat rhythms of the day.

Really like this, it's like those quiet moments sitting on a park bench and watching life go by but all speeded up. Nice one.

[Rosii93]

i like how the moon moves across the sky at 0:33

[JimmyPageIsALegend]

lol 2:19 a piece of laundry comes undone and us put up again (bottem left corner)

[saulhiphop]

also love the laundry going up in the bottom left corner

[saulhiphop]

beautiful!

[TheMrJjjaaammmeeesss]

Really like this. Especially the clouds rolling away. Don't the the weather lets it down at all.

I live in one of the other Netherthorp towers just up the road, the blue and white ones. You can come and film here, but I don't have such a cool view, all I can see is the Arts Tower.

Cheers

[bottem9]

can you try to get one in a storm that would look good

[chrismason0692]

Sweet

[EmmzzyLaureenn]

Cool x

[UnitedChickens]

amazing nice work :) was it done in england ??

[pininsho]

Yes. These are Upperthorpe high rise in Sheffield. One of the few sets of tower blocks in the city that have remained fairly successful as a place to live.

[Hereticuk]

Wish this happened to every building in Hull....with the tennants still in it

[sqwertery]

did you see the blonde on the 5th floor ,taking her top off.. luverly

[blackpoolbarmpot]

It was a Bloke - really !!!!

Still you can suck his c*ck if you like !!

[sqwertery]

that's your boyfriends flat next door.

you would only get jealous

[sunchild90]

very cool

[Missfusion11]

[andytye]

Beautiful - needs a backing track - there's a track by a group called Plastic Operator called Home which would be amazing to this... Nice work.

[MrCreamflow]

Just viewed that track on You Tube, your so right but I'd never heard of them before. 10/10!!

[MrFUNIGUY]

QUICK .. LOOK AT 3.00 SUM KID IS GETTIN ROBBED IN DA PARK .. lol (im joking .. this is soo not funi )

[whitfest34]

lmfao

[myPETsnailFRED]

ive allways wanted to do one of thease but on camera i would need about a 50gb memory card to just record it on

[onlineamiga]

not really u just need to take 1 frame every minute rather than speeding up a continuous record.

[ThatRascalKid]

Try getting a webcam and recording it straight onto your pc?

[Gillotine92]

I don't know why I find this interesting, but I do.

[Nuanceqwest]

SImple but nice art

[Scottmau5]

Jack Brady, i was gonna ryt the exact same thing, the washing gooing up, sweet hahah

[jonrobson421]

I never really noticed that it's lighter in the shade when the suns further down, probably due to refracting light. Or maybe it's just a contract problem.

[DaggazZ]

Amazing, and yes it would make a good drum & bass video.

[grazzer88]

This would make a brilliant Drum and Bass video.

[jackbrady1]

Lol at 55 seconds at the bottom left corner.

[itzhartley]

this is so funny. i hope some peolpe were killed!!!!!!

[Chris20117]

This reminds me of playing the first few sims games.

[NaturalDoggy]

Wow washing. That's changed my life. Who could possibly have concieved that on some artibrary day of the year somebody, somewhere would be drying their washing outdoors. You need to get out more.

[aiyakeichi]

amazing.. some music would've made it better

[Thearsenalkid]

you can see the bottom left houses' washing get hung out....

[Patryk737]

[JakeChaos666]

Ah. well yeah that's why its so popular today haha but it is a rather cool video, don't you think?

[up2trix]

[MrCreamflow]

[littleohah]

[abysmalcretin]

[blacklord747]

Loved how the water evaporated off of the street the next day :)

[alistairtheapple]

shudda added a song

[fizzle4fizz]

love the moon rising and setting

[niennae11]

Really interesting video. I love the dawns and how the light reflected from your windows moves across the blocks. Cool!

[krazykizza]

Not much up there. I was expecting rain happening or something interesting other than just clouds.

[rcapener1]

the overcast weather really adds to its dynamic i think!

[tomahawk42plus10]

upperthorpe is shit and would get smashed its all about gleadless, s14. we dont fuck about.

[Dee3917]

Well done! Really cool video.

[insut07]

What one gets up to when unemployed

[Funkyfooker]

2:45 my favourite bit.

[Poloxinated]

why?

[Funkyfooker]

Why not!

I was jesting! Its actually pretty impressive this vid it's just a shame the scenery isn't a lil better. Although the lights goin on and off in the flats does look pretty cool.

[MagicalApproach]

Now THATS an amazing video!

[jimbobur]

What frame interval did you use? (My rough guess was about 10 seconds.)

[9darby2]

I LIVE THERE!! LOL... its Upperthorpe in sheffield!!

[Funkyfooker]

Dude you live in a shithole. Why you sound so proud?

[Anthal1010]

because a "shithole" is what he's worked his ass off to get, leave him be

[Funkyfooker]

Lol then he should of worked harder.

[sheffgeeza]

u fucking mug what gives u the right too slag where he lives sure u live in a mansion and drive a bugati MUG!!!!!!!

[Funkyfooker]

Actually for the record i drive a 58 reg ford focus. Tis a good car.

[redwhiteblue91]

Really? It's a company car then?

[redwhiteblue91]

Thats shocking mate.

I hope you fail in life... hey your 31, get a job and stop living off your parents income... atleast he's left home!

[Funkyfooker]

Lol! I'm 31 i have a degree, a very spacious 3 bedroom house, a wife and 2 beautiful kids not to mention a well paid job.

What do you have? Well, apart fron the ability to make very poor judgments?

[redwhiteblue91]

I'm not old enough to have that mate. But so far... 12 GCSE's, 3 A levels (Chemisty, Physics and Maths), a city and guilds qualification in process engineering and I'm on my first year of uni doing Chemical Engineering.

I drive an 06 Seat Ibiza Sport 1.4 which I have worked hard for since I was 13.

So I think I'll have a dam sight better life than you, when I'm your age. Don't put down people because of where they live! All you know, he could be a right sound fella.

[Funkyfooker]

Your kickin arse then lad, respect where its due. Hope my kids know what they want when the time comes as you so obviously do. My degree was in architectural engineering and i've been lucky enough to get myself a job with a very reputable company based in manchester. Its worth the hard work and long nights mate its the best thing i ever did. Oh the Focus is mine by the way, we also have a Corsa too but thats the wifes. Terrible car if you ask me, stick with the Seat, don't ever consider a Corsa.

[pokemonworldcouk]

Judgment? Dude your arguing over youtube.

[Funkyfooker]

Well to be honest its not really arguing is it? Its more like making a bitchy comment and then getting slated for it lol.

[spyriadon]

2nd house along left there washing out over night! =o

[richworldr4]

u see that silver truck parked on the bottom right thats special branch watching recording you

[Megadeth1994METTULLL]

LOL SAINTS ROW

[bulbulfree]

Sheffield?

[DistantDreamer93]

That was really awesone. Especially seeing the transitions between night & day.

[TheTubeMouse]

Strangely fascinating. I love living in a tower block but, looking at this, it does make me think of a termite mound or something.

[domparis1978]

quite fascinating. A little addictive.

[Indrius]

There's someone who works (or watches porn) every night all night in the second building from the right somewhere around the 6th floor (greenish light in the window).

[iPodTouchReviews09]

lol i can see it lol

[Wheeto77]

0:32 UFO?

[Nogert]

Nope that's called the Moon :P

[monkeybrainmidget]

[iMcCartan]

[Wheeto77]

[andrewkr6]

[Lowlightindicator]

Nice. Cool sunrise and the night shots look like some kind of bladerunner effect.

[millsy110682]

[trueblue37]

[ShmoozaLoser]

[ChildStealer13]

[Brutalsleeper]

Funny how something simple can be so interesting.

[lukeblock1976]

This is beautiful!

[TIAGroup]

[tonyreno123]

cool

[jizzyg3216]

Second house from the bottom - left hand side. I cant believe how much washing she does!!! LOL

[hindler]

OMG, you're right! I think I counted 6 loads. Do you think she (assuming it's a she) is running a laundry or something?

[motorhead522]

Loool your right, but it's understandable considering the swarm of people you see living there at 1:15

[Poggletrack]

You can see the moon rising in the left hand corner at 0:34

[UkBeatBoxChannel]

WOOOOOOOW

[godzillaisadog]

WICKED. I love the transition between night and day!

[veredusjr]

lol at the lass bringing in the washing at 1 :15 bottom left near houses

[OhPoWneDiel]

all of a sudden the video is coming to life and getting comments. After 1 year of inactivity

[MrOmniscient]

This is near the top of "related videos" for a recently added video that's just been favourited by youtube.

[Mahavishnu80]

rofl you fuckin chavvy cunt

[deddie1]

i disagree about the overcast weather it looks fantastic. very well done

[djrab1972]

great video time lapse. i am doing photography at college just now and this is great watching this. djrab1972....

[spandexxking]

you dont need to sign your posts with your username, we can already see it. spandexxking....

[Revelian1982]

Yeah - that kind of thing is so stupid.

Revelian1982...

[sunkissd]

WOW. It's actually quite beautiful. x

[Chaos3717]

is it posible to do it on a camera

[SimbaShan]

yes

[TheSockPuppetShow]

to everyone who thinks this is fake...

this video is comprised of someone taking loads and loads of photographs from the same position once every:

15fps?

15 x 60 = y

(y x 3 = 2700).

1 day = 86 400 seconds

86 400 / 2700 = 32

So 1 frame was taken every 32 seconds. (with 15fps, my aprox fps.

I would appreciate it if you didn't discredit their work with your obvious RETARDATION!

[madmum23]

whats this all about?

[fastertortoise2]

good vid but it would be cooler with some music

[MrClaytonFTW]

looks like cottingly in leeds? is it?

[Robrero89]

Well it says that it's Sheffield in the tags.

[Serpico109]

[MrClaytonFTW]

[Danzairox]

[ReeceChapman]

Shame about the weather man. But its still an insane video. Producing one of these myself at the moment. Thanks for the inspiration (Y).

[Lotrioni]

[MorrisseysJamrag]
