wow. crazy to watch stuff.

I think some of the shots were simply really good CGI. For example, that tracking shot of the rocket would not have been possible in real time since the operator would have to be amazingly fast to turn the tripod.
 
I don't think the rocket shot is CGI. The military (and NASA) have cameras that track high speed rockets in order to monitor/study them while in motion. In this case the camera is on a highspeed track which starts at the same time the rocket is fired. It then has sensors that follow the object as best it can. NASA has an amazing camera that is attached to a HUGE telescope that follows the Space Shuttle on lift-off. It can follow the SS for miles. It's incredible.

The water balloons were cool to watch in slo-mo.
 
Yeah... that waterballon to the face, then the bird taking off at the end were bad@ss.

I've seen some of the others, I believe. All the one's that were stationary in the smaller aspect ratio have been around for awhile. Can't remember where I saw them, though.

Anyway... good stuff.
