- In today's vlog we head to the space coast to see the SpaceX Falcon Heavy launch. We took a bus to the Banana Creek viewing area, located at the Saturn V building which is part of the Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex. Although the launch was delayed a bit, it was amazing! We were viewing from the same area as the 'Feel the Heat' package holders and it was a really nice view! We hope you enjoyed this vlog as much as we did! Thank you for watching and we'll see you tomorrow with a new vid!

Then the boosters start coming back and someone tells Tim here they come and all you hear is Tim say “where?!?!..where?!?!” You can really tell how excited he is. TIM YOU’RE THE BEST!!!!
The cheers of the crowd brought me to tears. Felt so patriotic and American!
Thank you Tim for capturing this AMAZING experience and sharing it with us all! Also a HUGE thank you to Jenn for doing an incredible job on the editing! This video gave me goosebumps! You guys are AWESOME!!!
Amazing! The boosters landing in sync ... mindblown. A Tesla roadster in space .... speechless. Go Elon! :)
This was so emotional for me to watch. Growing up in Florida, I remember those shuttle launches and can recall the sonic booms and the air whapping. I haven't heard that in a long time. Just seeing how far we've come from our first space flight to this is truly astonishing. Seriously, I was in tears after this video. Good tears. Thanks Tim and Jenn!
I had a little cry from excitement! Living in Australia (which has no space program) I really appreciate you filming this!
Australia has a space program... you need to go to Woomera... or look it up :)
I can't help but get a little emotional when I see the launch too! And I get goosebumps!
Don't know why but I got emotional 😥 Well I do know
Maybe cause it reminded me of watching the old launchings with my grandparents! Thanks guys!
My two boys and I were only able to watch this launch on live TV last year and watching it again a year later, seeing it from a spectators point of view ON THE GROUND AT THE SITE....still brings tears to my eyes! What a momentous event to witness in our history! Thanks Tim (and Jenn for the editing) for documenting and sharing with us all!
A beautiful moment. Humanity needs a win right now. I think this counts. Great video Tim thanks!
I got goosebumps too!! I witnessed several shuttle launches on my trips to Florida, and they are events I'll never forget. Brought back those memories...
I saw a lot of space shuttle launches from Titusville as a kid. I was always amazed at the sound.
We were there, but were at the Turn Basin viewing area at the VAB. The whole experience was just so amazing and it was so cool to witness history like we did!
Love your enthusiasm for the launches, especially this one. I'm so glad that you can go so that we can see these too.
Sat here with a huge smile on my face as the rocket launched, then that smile got even bigger when those boosters came back....utterly amazing!!! What a feeling!!
Great shots of the take-off, Tim. Nice use of spilt screen too. Better than most of the 'official' coverage I've seen.
So happy that you got to experience this historic event and were able to share it with us.
Tim and Jenn. Watching you makes me so happy. You both are so genuine. I am proud to show your videos to my kids. Thank you for providing this content!
Watched tonight with my little boy. He had a ton of questions. Super special. Thank you so much. Loved the side by side view. Seeing the boosters return. Amazing. Truly appreciate all that y’all do!
Wow reminds me of when I was young and saw a space shuttle take off... It really was incredible.
Just shared this video with my husband who loves space, NASA, Space X, etc. It was great to share your experience with him! Thanks Tim!
Bill Nye was at 2 tourist hotspots! Kennedy Space Center and Universe of Energy at Epcot (technically) before it closed to become a Guardians of the Galaxy roller coaster!
Watching those boosters come down in a controlled manner and, I assume, land, was truly humbling. What an experience!
radiocaf I admit. I cried. I cried a bit at the cheering and general revelry. Humanity still has that indomitable hope when we look to the stars.
Holograms!!!!
@@quincym-e4680 incredibly fake looking. I think the public spends so much time on movies and video games that they don't have a sense of reality anymore of how things behave in the real world. How they can believe that a rocket can land like that, blows my mind. It would flip right away. Unreal. So much of society is brain dead.
I love the sound of the rocket after lift off, i can't imagine what that was like in person!
I can’t wait to watch this video in like 50 years. It will feel so nostalgic! I can’t believe you were there, that’s so awesome!
OMG just incredible. Thank you for taking us Tim! Jenn, GREAT Editing!! Bandit! Thanks for being awesome! I was able to watch it Live and omg just crazy awesome.
I got to witness it from my backyard! Completely mindblowing and awesome!
This is great! I was able to watch from my front yard! Didn't have a view like this though
btw Im an Orlando Tuber too!
Sauce Stache i
Awesome, guys! What a treat for you to witness, and what a treat for me to share. Have you seen video of the boosters touching down? Perfection!
This video was amazing, not just because of the history that was made but the way it was filmed and edited together was just absolutely flawless. Great job Tim on the filming and AMAZING job Jenn on the editing.
Amazing to see on tv. My 10 year old cried from amazement. My father in law was an engineer for nasa back in the 70s. So this was really a moment for us.
So glad you were there to see it!!! & show us from an on-lookers perspective too!!! AMAZING!!!!!!
It's nice to see Tim get so stoked like this after the launch. You can tell that he's super into it. 👌
WOW. that thing got up there in a hurry. the boosters coming back like that is just amazing
That was amazing we have been talking about it all day. Thank you tim for sharing this!
WOW !!! How cool was that !!!!!! Btw. Has anyone seen my little red Tesla sports coupe? I parked it in Kennedy Space center parking lot the other day. Can’t seem to find it now.
rich schindler um....(looks up at the sky) well...I've got good news and bad news....
I watched the launch from the top of a building in Daytona Beach, it was absolutely incredible and brought me back to the space shuttle days too! I can't wait to see what Space X does in the future for space travel! I can't even explain how I felt when I saw the video of those boosters landing back on Earth. Absolutely incredible!
When Tim’s footage is better than the official live stream!
Having been fortunate enough to witness two Space Shuttle launches from as close as you can get I completely understand that high you were on. I was speechless, too! It was so mind blowing that I was completely overwhelmed. Thank you for bringing back those memories!
Now that is a true spaceship! I love watching those go up
I saw sts 123 in 2008. It was a night launch. It was the coolest thing I ever saw. Took about 4 hours to get back to Orlando the traffic was insane but it was so worth it. If anyone is on vacation in Florida and has a chance to see a launch I would highly recommend it. The sound, the heat and the rumble of the ground is unbelievable! Nice Vlog Tim! Love the space stuff!!!!
I am SO happy you seized the opportunity to document this historic event! One of my favorite channels filming my favorite event so far this year has to be one of the most enjoyable things on youtube (for me)! Thank you!
I live about 25 min away from the SpaceX facility in McGregor, TX where they regularly test some of the engines. Even from 20 miles away those things will still rattle the windows and anything attached to the walls. It's seriously impressive. I bet being that close to 27 of those bad boys burning was intense!
That was EXCITING!!! Good job with the editing Jenn -that must have been hard ❤️
Thanks Tim for the coverage, I also felt very excited when I saw what this on TV. I couldn’t imagine how it felt actually being there. Enjoy your reviews.
Our space program is amazing and NASA is so awesome. Thanks for sharing Tim as I too felt speechless with this witnessing of future space travel. I want so much to be there next time.
Wow, awesome! Very cool to see this happen. This is on my bucket list. To see something like this happen. Thank you for sharing this experience.
Thank you for the view of the boosters returning to earth. Great camera work!
I took my students outside to see the original 1:30pm launch, but, as you stated, it was delayed.
The whole event gave me chills. Thanks again.
I love your speech about the launch in the end! Makes me a happy human!
It is the fifth largest after the Saturn V, N-1, Space Shuttle (replacing the orbiter with a cargo canister would mean over 100 tonnes to LEO in payload and the 1st stage produced 7.5 million pounds of thrust), and the Energia.
I wondered if you were there, so glad you got to see it and film it for us. Thank you Tim
Video took me back to my childhood days where I always dreamt of being a astronaut. Totally geeked out on this video!! Thanks guys!!
Thank-you. Thank-you. Thank-you....Kinda makes up for all the humid hot days.....you get to rocket launches live!! a little jealous in California
WOW !! 😵😱😀😎. Great job video taping it !! Loved the split screen ! Great job Jen editing ! Thanks for another great blog !
I love you guys for posting this and caring about it!! We have been waiting forever for this launch and when they announced the date last week we arranged to take our kids out of school and drive down from Kentucky! We watched some of the setup while we were are KSC on Monday but we watched the launch from Cocoa Beach. I’m so happy to see your view and all the activity at that site :) We hated not being able to see the pad but we felt like we had a front row seat to that awesome double touchdown of the boosters. Just amazing. I was so overwhelmed. We’ve been traveling home all day but just stopped for the night and the first thing I did was check to see if you posted about it. Yay!! Please please please keep making content like this for us space nerds!! Keep all of us up north up to date on what’s happening out there, especially with SLS coming up. I found you guys because of my love for Disney and I love all that content but this is even better!! Thank you again for posting!!
Awesome camera work. I love that you could see the FH on the top of the rocket. I’m so glad that someone is out there putting rockets up again from the space center. I miss seeing the Space Shuttle go up from my back yard, and am so glad that my boys will get to see this now. Aimed for the cheap seats with the family on the side of the 528 bridge. Still an epic view and experience.
Tim that was amazing thankyou so much. I was lucky enough to be in Florida in the early nineties and watch a shuttle launch with my family, best feeling ever, this video brought it all back, so emotional, thankyou
So amazing! Watched it live streaming, but gotta make it to a real launch one day! I have visited Kennedy and Cape Canaveral so many times and live only a few hours away, but have never visited for a launch!
Unbelievably jealous!! I so wish I could have been there!! Thank you for sharing!!
Thank you so much for filming this for those of us who couldn't be there!
This was a very impressive video. It was no easy task to zoom and keep it in focus. Also managing to keep the it in the frame. I am really impressed, and thankful for you guys and you videos!
I watched this live on tv yesterday. Goosebumps then & again today watching your video. Thanks for sharing!
Fantastic job keeping up with the rocket! Brilliant filming. We really enjoyed this. Thanks Tim!
It’s crazy how they managed to get the side boosters to land next to each other, crazy stuff!
I was really excited that there was a delay in the launch. My daughter and I were able to see it from Clermont as we waited to pick my son up from school.
I'm amazed with the launch, but I'm more amazed how your hand is so steady filming the rocket going up!!!
Just wow 🤗 it was on the news over here in Blighty 8.45pm last night, wishing I’d been at Kennedy to see it but had to make do with my sofa and tv and a large wine 🍷
I didn't get to see it live yesterday, and so glad you were there. I'm not even a bit embarrassed that I cried!! What a feeling to be going to space again - it's been too too long since the shuttle program which I miss dearly. THIS WAS AWESOME!
That Geekish Family -totally a bucket list thing to see. Took the family from Orlando to see it, and completely worth it. Ranked up there with watching the solar eclipse.
We tried to see a shuttle launch on our honeymoon, but a hurricane messed that up ;)
So awesome! I was hoping we would get video from you on this amazing occasion! 'Feel the heat package', I'm jealous.
Great filming Tim ! Your excitement is contagious!
Some of the best footage of this launch, thank you Tim
Absolutely spectacular
We were at the Space Center and even though we were farther away it was still awesome to watch! I think half the state of Florida was there! People as far away as Orlando could see it too!
can i just say stunning filming by Tim and also first class editing by Jenn brilliant guys thank you
Absolutely amazing to watch! Thank you so much for sharing 👍
Wow, you got better footage than the live news broadcast i watched of it. Thank you!
Great video. I always shed a few tears when I hear the crowds screaming and cheering in excitement.
I was at the Port Canveral Inlet and the rockets landed closer to us so we got to hear and see the full landings of them it was absolutely insane.
10:53 I have never heard or witnessed such energy from a crowd like I did at this time stamp, the sound of the rocket just adds to the dramaticness
Thank you so much for showing this launch
Wish I would've gone to the Cape to view the launch, however I was able to see it from UCF main. Excited to hopefully go during the summer to watch the next FH launch. Love the vid!
That was a beautiful sunrise to start a great historic day with.
Wow so so amazing that you got to see that live!! I watched on TV here in Vancouver BC, but wow what and incredible experience.
Thanks so much for sharing this video, I loved your split screen view, I have always wondered what happened to the boosters (if I am saying that correct) so cool to watch them come back.
I hope one day to watch a launch while I am there sometime!
thanks again!
Great Coverage Tim! I appreciate your passion for this as someone who has been in love with space since childhood, but has never gotten to see a launch in person.
I was so happy to see your reaction to the launch. I was fortunate to see some STS launches and wondered how those compared to the Falcon Heavy. Can't wait to see this for myself someday.
I love Bill Nye! What an amazing thing to witness that launch.
Tim, you did an amazing Job on the cameras, wish I could have been there, Thanks for all your hard work.
Thank you Tim!! We felt that emotion with you; it was awesome!! 👌❤
This was awesome! First Bill Nye and then the launch! It was great! I love the sonic boom part!
Oh thank you so much for covering this! I think these launches are so exciting and Tim's enthusiasm is definitely catching. Please tell me you bought that cool t-shirt.
That was awesome! You did a great job with the split screen filming. Great zoom on that camera! Thanks Tim.
Fantastic capture tim, was sad i had missed it live and your video made me smile thank you for that x
Oh wow! That just gave me the tingles. Speechless too!
Very cool to see it go up. Great camera work Tim and putting the two shots side by side Jenn!
WOW.......I am so glad I didn't miss that...very exciting..
Very cool. Watching it again game me chills!
wow great filming, what an experience to be there to actually witness it.
I got to watch from the Turn Basin site right next to the VAB. Incredible!!
I was on my school bus on my way back home, I live in rockledge which is like 10 mins away from KSC it's was an awesome sight!!
Great camera and editing work with the split screen! Excellent audio, too. The experience really came through nicely.
those boosters landing in perfect unison. What a thing to see.
I have no idea what the rocket was, or why it was launching, but it was so impressive!!!!! Made me want to cheer!
