Great video, but I think you should have included the USCRPL Fathom II, this launch that went to 144,000ft a few months back. Also, the HEROS 3 record is set to be broken at the end of the year by Delft Aerospace Rocket Engineering with their Stratos III rocket if all goes to plan.

More worthy than Fathom III is Embry Riddle Icarus. Unfortunately there’s no good footage. 199,580 ft apogee in mid-2000s by a university group. Also Reaction Research Society Boosted Dart to 50 miles (250 kft) in 1990s.

Disposable rocket motors thrust downwards, but after they burn out, they discharge upwards. This discharge can ignite a motor in a higher stage, or be used to push non-flammable wadding, a parachute, and the nosecone out the top of the rocket.

I went to a launch meet on Maryland's Eastern Shore some years ago and saw a spectacular Saturn launch; the pics herewith and the aerial footage look like the site...... other models' launches ran about $1k a piece; the materials for the engines are no doubt costly. I think one model exceeded 5 miles in altitude, was found 7 miles downrange.

Need a ww2 lesson there much eh? the Germans had superior equipment for most of the war, it just didn't have the reliability they needed to be combat effective. and how did soviets end up into the talk? and there tanks and other things were good later into the war especially with the introduction of heavy tanks. also the Germans masterfully executed things, like Jews and wars. as proof, they conquered an entire country in around a month, then smashed through the Benelux region and France, then a large portion of habitable Russia. only till most of the world was against it did they loss the war. so next time learn before spouting nonfactual information. also the Russians did win, they even beat the usa to the capital of Germany despite needing to go through more land. As well as usually having poorly trained soldiers by employing criminals and disabled to fight. even the average learner of ww2 in the slightest should have known Germany was in no way weak and in fact was strong until they didn't have a fuel of strong enough engines. and whatever form of American pride this is, he American's had weaker sprites usually retreating after less casualties then germen or soviet soldiers did.

Pressure in the human body is enough that your blood does not, in fact, boil, unless it's exposed to the vacuum (your saliva, tears, etc. however will). You won't freeze to death either "in seconds" because there's very little air around you to convect heat from your body.
