    Wow!!! It actually worked!!! This is the most fun I've had working on a video. As mentioned, if you'd like one of the actual 3D printed rocket emojis then I'm randomly sending them out to new subscribers and anyone who comments. Cheers - James

    Excellent work! The drag numbers actually feed back into the aerodynamic stability you talked about earlier-- the highest drag ones are the ones with the biggest fins, which helped keep them straighter for longer. I'm pretty sure that's why you saw the result with high-drag rockets going higher.

    Really interesting video idea, I've never seen anything like this! I also really like how you kept the video educational without making it super hard to follow or boring, 10/10 would watch again!

    I'm impressed by your willingness to sacrifice so much syrup!
    Thanks for the entertaining and informative video. I built a model rocket once and feel like I could've benefited from watching this at the time.

    I love how Microsoft and Apple got as far away from each as possible
