This is the full 84 minutes of video shot from the FlipCam inside the weather balloon capsule as it sent Stephen Colbert's head to space. The camera stopped recording after 90 minutes, which is why there's no footage of the balloon falling to earth.

  • OMG MAKERBOT PLZ REMAKE THIS but this time make the recording time longer so we can see it fall

  • where is ufo?

  • How far did it travel?

  • y el momento en el que cae donde esta????

  • Steven looks a bit...green. Must be afraid of heights.

  • @late20s nvm, the last few minutes of the other video explained it all. Pretty well executed.

  • @makerbot Was the Styrofoam box enough to absorb the landing impact? I am a bit impressed...

  • guess the 5 minutes and 52 seconds of missing film was the taping of the box and making sure everything was good to go.... too bad, i think the majority of people, myself included, were mostly interested in the descent rather than ascent.... even with that little of weight, it would have fell at a much higher velocity compared to the rate at which it rose

  • i came here to see it falling! gahhhh!!!!

  • who watched this till the end of the video thuumbs up
