spaceXcentric Kevin awesome video I have been waiting for this video for ever thank you so much and please keep doing these Maybe one on landing rockets? Also amazing animation
Wow! To be honest, I didn't think I was going to like this one, but I found it compelling right from the start. Thanks for giving me a new understanding of parachutes.
@@steffahn that’s less of a parachute and more of a parafoil, I’d say Edit: Those are still parachutes I guess, just not the ones mainly being talked about
@@chocohouse4147 Yeah, in most fonts it is not the kind of parachute that the video is about. Nonetheless the official name for the emoji seems to be “parachute”.
Fabulous documentary Kevin. As a skydiver and paraglider pilot I really appreciated the development manufacturers put into the safety and performance of these systems.
100% effort given shows 110% in the product.... man, this was awesome, awesome, awesome. So very well done and delivered a wealth of interesting information. Thank you!
I honestly never thought parachutes were so complex and I've skydived before, younger and dumber. This is the kind of stuff Discovery channel and the like used to put out before everything was reality/fake TV. Parachutes are pretty damn complex and amazing. This is a quality piece of work and the hours and detail you put into it show. Nice job! Can't wait for Wednesday.
I remember when you had 900 subs around the time you proposed the LEGO ideas falcon heavy it amazes me how much you grown and how fast love your vids keep it up!
When I was stationed in Korea I ordered a new main canopy from the US. When it arrived the box was stamped on all sides, in big red letters "EMERGENCY ALTITUDE DECELERATOR". Thought this was a strange thing to call a parachute. But later found out that if you are shipping emergency/life saving equipment you got a break on postage. So this is what it was called so as to get this break. Thought is was a bit funny. Just my $0.02
I have always found great wisdom in the saying "never jump out of a perfectly good airplane" that must be why use rickety old airplanes for parachute jumping, a form of incentive.
Other than commercial flights I've taken off a couple of thousand time but only landed 5 and they were always somewhat scary. Especially looking rearwards out an open door.
I went from propulsive only to now understanding the awesome complexity of parachutes. Good work Kevin... cant wait for you to produce the next one :-P
Awesome documentary!! Glad you mentioned Copenhagen Suborbitals, as they have produced amazing achievements for amateur rocketmen! Looking forward to your next documentary.
Outstanding video. I’m sure you just caused a spark that will change a lot of young people’s lives with the enthusiasm and knowledge you showcased here. The desire and ability to figure things out is what is going to get us to Mars and beyond. So many people that have the ability to contribute to our future in space don’t yet even realize what is happening right now but they will. Content creation like this and more broadly your amazing channel is so beneficial to bringing the dream to reality. Great job!!!
As someone just getting into my own channel, i watched this not just for the content, which was simply stellar (ha) but with the view of how you'd do a long length video, and i have to say, you REALLY nailed it. Perfect storyline, well executed, the planning must have been well thought out! Love the occasional jib in there too, so your style. Amazing video K, can't wait for more!!!
TMRO: Space networking Scott Manley: Fuel injectors, gyros EA: Engines BP: Attitude control Kevin: Parachutes We're getting there folks. Eager to see "DIY orbital capsule and recovery" in a TH-cam video some day. 😌🚀
@@premiumbananaguy5319 TMRO is a space-show that got like a "tv-news" feel (even include space weather!), they do it in like a 3d studio etc. They have a show they do once every week or so that is quite good honestly and they also do some good very in-dept interviews from time to time. Would recommend checking them out even though I don't see every video myself they do have some quality content.
Having been a smokejumper and now a youtuber, I respect both the parachute and the hard work you put into this video. Great stuff like this is hard to do. Thanks pal.
Haven't even gotten past the intro yet and had to leave a comment. This is going to be great! Thank you for taking an in-depth look at an often underappreciated technology from a fellow freefall fanatic
I love the thrill and anticipation of chutes opening, gracefully, and majestically slow a large massive capsule to a safe gentle landing. To me, watching chutes open and slow the Gemini and Apollo capsules to a safe splashdown after a challenging mission, aggressive violent re-entry - is like saluting the men and women for a Mission well done. Please, please continue this series on the importance, technical needs of large parachutes! Thanks for sharing.
Nothing beats the feeling you get when looking up at the chute deploying after pulling the cord, followed by the firm pull and the decrease of wind noise. Looking at some of the slow-motion movies of the parachute testing is like watching art. :)
Wow, Kevin, well done for this! This must have taken an incredible amount of work to put this together so well and professionally, and it certainly shows! This is the way learning should be.
A great video... informative, entertaining and up-to-date. I know these longer form episodes require huge levels of effort, but the results speak for themselves. Looking forward to the next installment!
I made a comment on the previous video, wondering where Kev Kev had been lately. This explains it all. The amount of work filming, interviewing, travel etc and editing has achieved this 'Award Winning' story on Rocket Parachutes. ***** that's 5 stars from New Zealand. A big congratulations Kev Kev.
This is yet another reason why youTube is so amazing and supporting small content creators is the future of "broadcasting" i cut the cable to get netflix, i axed netflix to get youtube premium -- its worth every penny:
You hyped this video up a lot...and frankly after seeing it, I don't think you hyped it up nearly enough. Beautiful work Kevin, such a delight to watch!
Great video! As a child of Apollo, I was fascinated with all things space travel, but I was especially fascinated with parachutes. Every trip to the library yielded a haul of whatever books mentioned parachutes - spacecraft, smoke jumpers, paratroopers, skydivers, whatever. When my mother mentioned that she had an uncle who had been a paratrooper, I couldn’t wait to talk to him and get all my questions answered. He was very patient with me. :D This video really cleared up a lot of remaining questions for me!
Your best video yet. I love the regular updates, but a deep dive on a specific subject like this (especially one not as well appreciated or understood as it perhaps should be) is very welcome. Thanks!!
Mad respect on the long format doc formats. Really interesting stuff! Nothing sounded like a regurgitation of some other topic related to the subject. Original and informational! More please!
I'm so glad you had Mads on here, plus with an actual skydiver for the subtle details like packing inside vs outside gives a fantastic video. I'm even more surprised that these things work so well now
Awesome! Great video and epic music while wrapping up the ending... like a well deployed parachute! One of those airborne soldiers here, though now a veteran! I love parachutes!
This documentary was the best spaceXcentric video I have seen. Congratulations! You should do more documentary videos like this one. It was really educational! THANK YOU!
This is by far your best video. Wow nice job. Your tone and how you talk to us is perfect. The information is great. I can see now why you like parachutes so much. Great video! I am a space geek and have been following you and other channels through the whole SpaceX Startship testing. Watching live feeds for hours. I never knew all of this about parachutes, and I have been sky diving before.. Nice work! Thank you
Originally I did not think that this topic is that much interesting to me, but gave the benefit of the doubt based on previous content. I can say it totally worth my time, so really well done.
TH-cam needs to add a "triple thumbs up" button for videos such as this.. 👍👍👍 What a fantastic way to spend half hour Kevin.. your production quality just keeps getting better and better.. thank you so much.
Wow, you did an amazing job on this video. I learned so much and have a greater appreciation for the research and testing of "against - fall" devices. Thank you for putting the time, resources and energy into this presentation.
This is a start to end jam packed awsome footage and information video. This team that put so much time and effort into compiling this amazing video needs to be commended. And for all those that generously offered their assistance too. Kevin ... You seriously are a professional in your ability to faultlessly articulate this presentation world of parachutes . Thank you *everyone* .
I religiously watch your content every week, look forward to getting the notification that you dropped a video! Well done on the explanations and information especially on this video, out of the park my friend.. Keep them coming!
You've got to love Peter Beck... happy to talk stuff like this with guys like Kevin. I loved the interview he did with Tim Dodd, the two of them just sitting casually on the edge of the launch platform.
Speaking as a Kiwi, I totally agree with you Simon. Peter has really done a great thing for the small satellite industry and has put New Zealand in the world news. But, like some earlier New Zealand business eg Hamilton jet boats, we have to get the backing of US investors to make it happen. Our 4.8 million population is still too small. Yes, I saw that Tim Dodd interview, it was great. Peter and Elon are very meticulous 'engineers' of 'making it happen'. A rare breed. And Kevin got a good score for his 'favourite subject' and the interview with Peter on the recovery chutes.
Happy Memorial Day Kevin! Great informative video bro! You put a lot of time into this one! Amazing! Perfect time for DM 2 this Wednesday SpaceX Falcon 9 Crew Dragon launch!! (Fingers crossed)
Great video Kevin, editing was great, props if you did it all! The music was good and not distracting and I liked that you had some snippets of interviews interspersed throughout (more would be cool like the skydivers perspective). I love tuning in for all the rocket and space news and I would also love to see more of this type of content if you would be interested in producing it (and if you have the time).
AWESOME video! Yes, chutes are where it's at! The trip isn't complete until you're back safe on the ground. Four years of flying skydivers... and four years of having a military "round" strapped to my back, that fortunately, I never had to use.
Great job and an interesting doc. Thank you. That must have been a time consuming endeavor. Well worth it. I personally would also like to thank lawyer wife. Someone needed to. :D
Wow! Kevin! This was an awesome documentary! Thanks so much. Loved your passion and the music you chose. It was very logically presented and you really helped me understand just how amazing are parachute! You really should do more of these documentaries. Thanks so much, man! Keep up the amazing work! Godspeed!
This was actually a very comprehensive video for this channel. I'm impressed. Just don't go nuts and make a 1 hour ep on rocket pollution. Even I couldn't finish that one.
Congratulations very straight forward explanations, very high quality video this is next level for you and for the channel! Keep going you are awesome!

You need to do more documentaries. This one is awesome
concur
Yeah this was a great video!
Haha I just commented the same thing. For real, he's got talent for this
Agreed, this is fantastic!!
Too true
Great job Kevin! Was a pleasure talking to you! 🚀(It's 2020 and still no parachute emoji?)
It really is a tragedy
Not quite correct. There exists one since 2019: 🪂
@@steffahn that’s less of a parachute and more of a parafoil, I’d say
Edit: Those are still parachutes I guess, just not the ones mainly being talked about
@@chocohouse4147 Yeah, in most fonts it is not the kind of parachute that the video is about. Nonetheless the official name for the emoji seems to be “parachute”.
I hope you guys can safely put a man or women into space or a have them flown on a suborbital flight good luck and Godspeed.
Look at that great black and orange skydiving rig!! 😉 Thanks a lot for this collab Kevin! I am honored, great video all and all!
Was awesome working with you!
Fabulous documentary Kevin. As a skydiver and paraglider pilot I really appreciated the development manufacturers put into the safety and performance of these systems.
100% effort given shows 110% in the product.... man, this was awesome, awesome, awesome. So very well done and delivered a wealth of interesting information. Thank you!

My previous dismissal of parachutes fills me with shame
:)
ARGH!!! Why doesn't TH-cam make it so that you can push the thumbs up multiple times! I'd give this video 15 thumbs up!
You are all thumbs, man
Only 15?
I remember when you had 900 subs around the time you proposed the LEGO ideas falcon heavy it amazes me how much you grown and how fast love your vids keep it up!

Haha that is a great story. Some person somewhere in a company had a great idea on how to save money apparently. :)
Peter Beck seems like a really chill dude. And RocketLab is a badass company! I love their launches and rockets.
Great dude great company
Nice work Kev! I enjoy your usual light hearted updates (and still will), but this was the best work I've seen you do. Top stuff & thanks!

My first time in a plane, I jumped.
Surprisingly, the pull toggles on the round chute made it very easy to turn.
I know you hyped the hell out of this video........AND it was VERY MUCH worth it! Great job bud! Loyal subscriber here.
That was a great presentation and lesson on parachutes. Thanks for the hard work and posting this.
Had to watch this one twice to get full the full effect, great job Kevin! Loved the history lesson. You’ve set the bar now...

This was a very well made video. I was surprised at the amount of useful information it contained. Well done, spaceXcentric.
