slingshot not catapult.
Also pretty awesome.

Hi there, I am the base jumper appearing in the video, can you remove the catapult video PLEASE?
I guess you record it from the net, there was a LEAKAGE, this video was not supposed to come out before we release a full movie about the story.
Please can you erase it ASAP?
I am very annoyed people don't respect our work on this project by sharing a video with no rights and not even saying from who it is coming from. There was 30 people for one month to build the catapult and I worked 6 month to organise all project, we wanted to keep this secret before the official full movie is released...
Thanks for your cooperation

In the spirit of good will, *kill - but the cat is really out of the bag.

Permanently discarding this video - kill requested by dag.

I do feel for your predicament, I can tell you put a lot of hard work into this.

Seem to me though that the clever marketing move would have been to go with the flow on this. To paraphrase my favourite princess, the more you tighten your grip, the more it will slip through your fingers.

To go with the flow with what?
This video was in a computer, beeing edited for a fulll story. People are using it without our credits, because it is not inside the video, as it was not supposed to be shared!

To use the released video to promote your full story instead of trying to squash it everywhere. It's shitty that someone did this, and it's not right that they took it from your computer. But now that it's happened, you'll have a hard time stuffing the genie back in the bottle.

Best of luck, it's a neat concept.

Restored video with new embed per this email announcement by @tancredemelet:

Hi, following a leakage, and after fighting for 3 days to "kill the buzz", we realised it doesn't work. Instead, we released an official "trailer" of the next to come catapult movie :

Sounds like my type of woman........... umm...... where is this quote from exactly?

@Barseps
seriously? you never saw star wars?
princess leia to governor tarkin?

im sorry my friend,your geek card is now revoked.
hand it over bub!

Not to mention this is a bit like yelling at someone for buying a stolen bicycle from a Church garage sale.

Edit. No, it's more like yelling at someone for looking at a stolen bicycle.

Sorry the video was stolen, but it is watermarked, so it's not like you don't get credit. I don't understand what the problem is, people like the video and it's a teaser anyway. Just be happy people are interested man, that's the whole point!

I went to find your other videos and now know your name and other stunts because of this video here. Cheers, Tancrede.
But I can see timing being an issue you might want control over. Ideally, you'd want to release this buzz-worthy video-byte closer to the date when the real video is actually ready to go... so people don't forget.
