Fast-motion video of a helicopter ride over Queenstown and The Remarkables mountain range in New Zealand (original video was approx. 30 minutes long). Ascended to 7,000 feet above sea level and landed atop one of the snowy mountain peeks for a look around. The camcorder sat on the floor of the helicopter, looking out the front, plexiglass window. If it seems shaky at all, that's because we were getting blown back and forth by strong winds. Soundtrack is "I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For" by U2, a song that was a staple of our journey across the South Island of NZ.

  • This is the first time I've commented on Youtube, but I felt I had to say something for this... I'm from the UK and spent 6 months in NZ last year travelling all over. Your video reminds me of our helicopter ride over the Fox and Franz Josef glaciers, landing at the top of FJ and playing in the snow... I could have stayed forever. What a fabulous place New Zealand is, love it love it love it!
