And up... up... how does it do that?

The Airbus A380 takes off at the annual Bourget air show. The Airbus ascends only gradually at airport takeoffs, but the Airbus can climb much more quickly than most of us realize. What makes this clip so bizarre is how slow the Airbus seems to be moving... you're left wondering, "how can such a massive piece of metal not just fall out of the sky?" Impressive aerodynamic engineering.
