NTL Broadband for a faster tandem

[DeepThought 0]

NTL are using a tandem skydive to demonstrate the speed of their Broadband

Click on

And select video streaming.

I definetly think that you need broadband to view most of clips on skydivingmovies.

There seems to be a lot of Skydiving ads at the moment.
Does anyone out there work in advertising?

Photoshopped...nah probably after effects or even more likely Avid'ed.

Hell, I can't even access broadband from home till the end of this month, living in the boonies has its downside ocassionally.....there are upsides, but they are as limited as a dial up conection.

Deepthought, instead of trying to watch them streaming, right click the download button and hit 'save as', then rip the top off a cool frosty one till the video shows up on your hard drive.

As skydiving videos go, they are not worth saving..
(I use skydiving movies for that)

I just thought it was quite interesting that all sorts of companies are using skydiving in their advertising.

I am fairly new to the sport.
But it seems that latley it has become a lot more prevelent within the media.
