i dont get it. even if its sped up how does this chair smack around when the air is so thin, I dont think there is a bunch of wind up there.

I think its more a product of the lack of any atmosphere that high up...the tiniest of forces in usual ambient pressures wouldnt really do much, as friction would overcome the impulse to move with the force.

Without the atmosphere though, the effect of the minute forces are soooo much greater.

Think how they turn a spaceship that weights hundreds of tons....tiny puffs of air.

Ugh. There's something really vertigo inspiring about this.

They REALLY need to add some nice relaxing music to this. That buzzing sound is awful.

Sorry to be a pedantic idiot but a balloon cannot make it anywhere near space.

And holy shit for once I would like to urge the video author to change the soundtrack.

It needs a chairboy too.

I wonder how fast that chair leg was going when it hit the ground? I bet it would have gone clean through a car... Or a person.
