Heard this track for the first time when I was driving in the middle of the Kakadu National Park in Australia. The part around 1:44 kicked in as I was crossing the bridge over the South Alligator River. I turned my head and I saw the most unreal sunset, all purple, pink and crimson, reflected in the waters of the river. I had to stop the car. get out, walk and somehow let the experience sink in, as I felt completely overwhelmed by the music. It was one of the most beautiful moments of my life.

Had a similar experience with a different song, where things matched up perfectly: I was listening to the Gorillaz song Lake Zurich on a plane and it was the first plane I had been on in roughly eight years, so I was more than a little nervous. Anyway, as the song is building up at the beginning, the plane starts down the tarmac, going faster and faster, when suddenly, as the song breaks, we take off. Synced fucking perfectly I swear to God. As someone who loves Baby Driver, I was so glad to have experienced that.

I'm sure many won't get the connection, so.... The more famous KZread video with this song is kzread.info/dash/bejne/d4dklM-Qea2YhM4.html&ab_channel=icannotfly which was Felix Baumgartner's highest space jump (and supersonic freefall, sponsored by Red bull) in 2012, which beat Kittinger's previous (afaik only other space freefall) record in 102,800 feet-from 1960. One reason to find a different non-music video of Bauggartner's fall is that for a long while his facemask was completely clouded and he's just falling without control for several terrifying minutes. I think a big reason this has not been attempted again. Imagine falling uncontrollably in low oxygen high altitude environment, but you know you're parachute must deploy successfully within 10 minutes or SPLAT! Both men (and their teams) deserve out utmost respect.

This cool video boys and girls is historic footage of Col Joe Kittinger's (USAF) record setting parachute jump from space during Project Excelsior, a program to establish very high altitude emergency bailout procedures for astronauts. This was 1960, the altitude- 102,800'! (about 19 miles high). He free fell for 4 1/2 minutes! down to 18,000' where he deployed his chute. He was the fastest man alive without propulsion at 614 mph! He's still around to this day. An American Hero. I couldn't think of a better tune than this hit from BOC for this video. Thanks for posting...and thanks BOC for sharing your incredible creativity!

Chose this song for my first time flying in an airplane. Absolutely life changing experience.

When I was a child, my mother introduced me to music of all kinds at a very early age. When she was pregnant she listened a lot to Board of Canada. Years later, when I was 6 or 7 years old, my mother moved house and found some Board of Canada CDs. When I listened to them I had this feeling that I had never forgotten the music of Board of Canada and that it was part of me. This sound is a perfect example of that. I'm nearly 19 and I'm grateful. Thanks to my mother and Board of Canada for existing.

Awesome Mother! ❤ So exactly what you explain has been proven in scientific studies. Starting around the age of 3 children have been proven to show an affinity to certain music which was played when they were in the womb(specifically "sweeter" melodies and rhythms which tend to occur in classical music but also this song). I read this in the book This Is Your Brain On Music, there is also a bunch of documentaries on the book by the same name. To be clear I am not talking about any IQ increase but strictly that children positively identify and trend towards these songs.

RIP Joe Kittinger 27 July 1928 - 09 December 2022

Heard this song and stuck it in my "Space" playlist. I used to listen to it and other songs as background music while playing Kerbal Space Program. Now I see the video for the first time, and it starts at the edge of space.... 🤯

13 YEARS AGO??? DANG ME WHEN I WAS 7 my mom had such cool taste

I'm sorry for all the people that think this video needs to be updated. I think it's perfect the way it is. Joe's jump is the most impressive skydive in history, IMO, and the footage is beautiful. Just seeing him rise up in that balloon sends tingles down my spine like nothing else. Such an amazing and adventurous feat for the time.

Little story: July 18, 2007, my internet connection arrived in my house. I'm 14 and a half and it was wonderful. Google was fabulous and exciting. It was a great day when my brother finally told me: "aaah it's good it works !!" with the long awaited Google page. We spent the afternoon researching obscure UFO, alien, astronomy blogs to read this. It was facinating. Then in the evening I wanted to listen to music, it was the only thing that mattered to me. I type KZread and I click. I type Evanescence Sweet sacrifice and I sing in front of my PC. I go back to stumble upon that gray search bar because I didn't know what else to listen to and all the videos centered one by one. I see a weird thumbnail with blue and black and I click on this unknown piece. It was so fucking beautiful. I wanted to jump out of that parachute and dive into those waves. This sound was new to me, I who had grown up with Britney Spears and pop music radio had just discovered a group that translated what I felt deep inside me: a desire for deep freedom and deep sadness. The old videos comforted me on summer nights. I really got into something and since then this group has marked me. It is Timeless and so are their works. Nothing has changed since I clicked on Dayvan Cowboy, the same thumbnail. I cry from nostalgia.

One time, whilst walking from my school back to my grandma’s house, I was listening to this song. And when that guitar riff started I felt relaxed, I was on another plane of existence. Then I almost got run over by an ambulance. Thank you, Boards of Canada, for giving me a near-death experience, I love ur songs.

This is quite possibly the best music video I've ever seen in my life. Joseph Kittinger was a United States Air Force officer that skydived from space back to Earth because why not, one must be glorious in life.

Dayvan Cowboy is always at the top of my KZread playlist and I keep clicking it.

Funny how no-one has mentioned Laird Hamilton. The Big Wave surfer in the video. Coolest muthafucka alive!

Am I the only one that has seen the travel show called Departures? I absolutely loved the intro song to that show. Little did I know, it was an edited version of this song. This is so cool.

D - Rob yes that is the best travel show ever made. And using Boards of Canada in the opening credits fits perfectly with the amazing cinematography and BOC inspired scoring. Also, its a Canadian produced show starring Canadians!

This is a song that I will never grow tired of.

I am harvesting on the hills of a wonderful countryside: this music makes me feel I am doing one of the best things I could do and how life is wonderful

I get chills every time I listen to this song.

Listened to this driving from Las vegas to the area 51 gates. Freaking awesome!!

I have listened to a lot of music in the year 2000, but I can honestly say that dayvan cowboy is probably the most insperational song I have ever heard in my life. It takes a creative genius to come up with something like this. I am jealous of the boards of canada's musical talent, However notNot in a hateful way. I just think this piece is pure genius, and i wish I had the talent and then mind to create it. It proves that one can still create a masterpiece which is just what this is.

For all those saying its Felix in the jump, look at the date its 2006, long before Felix did it This is Joe Kittinger's jump, the original record holder. He's a cool dude

I deeply love these Scottish brothers,they give me so many emotions...💖💖💖

The video and the music together are so uplifting! This really is BoC's optimistic album.

i was walking across campus listening to them and the beat came in and i just had to stand there for a moment and really realize the beauty in everything, props to boards of canada for being able to make a song of pure emotions

Makes me feel like there isn't a worry in the world. Then the song ends and I wake up

One of my absolute favorite songs from these guys. There is something to be said when a primarily electronic artist can touch upon and bring to mind the organic beauty of nature while subsequently creating a sense of nostalgia for a time and place I've never known. Such is the case with Boards of Canada. This is music for the soul.

this has been one of my favorite songs and videos for like a decade, and i just now find out it was BoC's first video? - *mind blown*

Captures the early 2000s aura.

Words can not describe how beautiful this track is. Everytime I listen to it, it sounds as sublime as the first time I experienced it's hypnotic field of sound.

It may sound nuts, but this band changed my life, got me through some tough times...

This song is so overwhelming for me now especially with all the memories that come with it

Something magic happened when this music was added to this film.

The soundtrack of my life

I can’t believe this is 17 years old. I was mad into it when I was 17. And it still makes my ears happy - thank you ❤

i dont know why i love old videos from 2006

Miss BOC so fucking much!

Breathtakingly beautiful. Boards Of Canada is one of the best bands in the universe.

Welcome to Earth. You are here.

Ikr?!!! Genuinely phenomenal music from the duo of BoC!

BoC’s music is the definition of nostalgia, which is intentional. Tracks like this make you reflect and think back to more simple and carefree times as a kid, happy times. Their music is very emotive and is one of the reasons I adore it so much. I’ll never stop listening to BoC.

There's chills literally coursing through my body... edit: 6 years later and holy crap this comment is cringe
