The publisher of this video worked on it frame-by-frame for 4 weeks, producing a smooth video in HD with 30 fps. It's well cool!

Here's a video showing the raw footage, compared to the enhanced version. So much image processing has been done, its amazing.

I would've loved to see the splash when the heat shield hits the ground. Amazing how long it stayed in the camera field.

Yeah me too. I watched it all the way down and was disappointed when it moved out of the field of view.
