The chair was lifted to 98,268 feet, which took 83 minutes to get there, the chair was fitted with a helium balloon and a Toshiba IK-HR1S compact camera to film the action. Also have a look at the making-of.”

Eine sehr schöne Form der Interaktion für ein junges Publikum.

Die Idee stammt von den Brüdern Jens und Lars Rasmussen, die bereits zuvor Google Maps gebaut haben.

Auf der einen Seite pure Innovation, auf der anderen hingegen werden immer mehr Daten (hierbei Emails und Fotos) bei Google hinterlegt!
